Irish Pubs Open on Good Friday: Poll Results

0:00On April 7th, remember back when pub shut down on Good Friday? No booze allowed? That rule got scrapped in 2018, opening doors for drinks on the holy day. Folks had strong feelings either way at the time. Some saw it as a cool tradition that added edge to the holiday, like sneaking around with a pint. Others worried it'd chip away at Ireland's cultural roots, turning a quiet day into just another party night. Now, a fresh poll shows where people stand today. 135 said they skipped the pub but like having the choice. 66 think it's still a bad move. 54 hit the pub and back the change fully. Seems most are cool with the freedom, keeping that old band in the history books. This has been Europe News Today, powered by AI.
