Hoboken Residents Replace St. Patrick's Day Parade With 'Lepre-Con' »

The St. Patrick’s Day parade committee’s resolution to cancel festivities this year follows Mayor Dawn Zimmer’s “insulting” decision to move the parade to a weekday, after 2011’s event rang up an unprecedented and alarming number of arrests, citations, and even sexual assaults.

Darrah said she envisioned “Lepre-Con” to parallel SantaCon, which to the dismay of many New Yorkers, brings together thousands of holiday revelers stumbling across the city in a massive, annual pub crawl.

As someone who has attended his fair share of St. Patrick’s Day Parades, I can tell you that the actual parade is probably the least fun thing that happens during the parade. If you know what I mean.

And damn, how did it take so long for “Lepre-Con” to happen? Brilliant.
