Chicago's Green River
Workers dye the Chicago River green as part of the city's annual St. Patrick's day celebrations in Chicago.
From a Globe And Mail article.......
It's a cold March night, the lights that spell out “Welcome to Wrigley Field” are blazing on the stadium wall across Clark Street and, assuming my new friend knows all the Second City's secrets, I ask him what he thinks about the tradition of pumping gallons of green dye into the Chicago River on March 17.
“Don't they do that everywhere?” he replies, which kind of throws me. I further enquire if he thinks the green dye pollutes the river.
“The Chicago River?” he asks incredulously, and then just laughs and laughs.
