St. Patrick's Day And The Rest Of The Year?

Another St. Patrick's Day is upon us, and we all will go through our respective rituals in our respective cities.  Most have some kind of Irish-related festivities, but when it comes to drinking, what city has true staying power?  What city has, as  Charles Bukowski would say, has the necessary "endurance" to be legitimately hailed the "Football Town With a Drinkin' Problem".  For my money, it has got to be a gloomy rust belt city, one with a great football legacy, and one with a shot and beer mentality.





I don't think there is any question that Pittsburgh is that town, that definitive "Drinkin Town with a Football Problem".  What do you think?  How does your town stack up?
