Obviously the big blowout parties have come and gone this past weekend, and all that remains is a Wednesday St. Patrick's Day for those up to the task.
Iowa vs. Illinois: Which State Is Luckier And More Irish?
We are less than a week away from St. Patrick s Day. Soon you ll be seeing a lot of green. Green beer, green shirts, green beards, and hopefully more green grass. Before we get to St. Patty s Day, let s find out which side of the Mississippi River is more Irish and luckier.
Two new studies from our friends at Zippia has come out show how Irish and lucky each state is. I ll give you one hint,
Illinois actually did alright on these lists. One state did a lot better than the other, but we ll get to that.
I love that concert announcements are becoming a thing again. The Midwest s most popular cover band is coming to Davenport this May. They have a very unique name and that are super awesome in concert. The Pork Tornadoes are making their Quad Cities debut this May.
Rhythm City Casino Resort announced on Thursday that the Midwest s most popular cover band, The Pork Tornadoes, will be hitting their stage on Saturday, May 8th at 8 p.m.
I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, which is where this incredible group was founded. I ve seen The Pork Tornadoes in concert before and they put on one hell of a show. They put their own twist on pop songs played here on B100 from artists including Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, Lizzo and Beyonce. They also do awesome covers of songs from The Killers, Coolio and Phil Collins.
Quad City Events Happening This Weekend
With St. Patrick s Day being on a Wednesday, we really get two weekends to celebrate, right? Either way, there are a lot of St. Patty Day celebrations throughout the QC this weekend.
One thing I must remind you about before you get your green partying on. Don t kiss random people because they say they are Irish or they are wearing a shirt that says so. Maybe just blow them a kiss instead. From 6 feet away.
If you re looking for a reason to get out this weekend besides to celebrate St. Patrick s Day things, today (Friday) and tomorrow is suppose to be great weather. High s in the upper 50 s and sunny skies. Sunday when you re hung over, it s going to be rainy, cloudy and in the mid 40 s.
