If the large concentration of people decked out in green attire yesterday didn’t tip you off, Chicago once again celebrated St. Patrick’s Day early with a parade in the Loop. In spite of some chilly temperatures, crowds showed up early to watch the river turn a dirty shade of green before lining Columbus Drive for the annual procession of dancers, bagpipers and politicians.
