Win a VIP Pass to St. Patrick's Day Bash at O'Connor's

The downtown Rochester pub is the place to be this Sunday; here's how you can avoid the lines.

St. Patrick's Day is Sunday, and at O'Connor's Public House in downtown Rochester, the green beer is brewing.

The Irish bar hosts the town's biggest St. Patrick's Day bash; this year marks the ninth year. (Read Readers' Choice: O'Connor's the Best Spot to Spend St. Patrick's Day in Town.)

The celebration begins at 7 a.m.; breakfast (including eggs, bacon and corned beef hash) is served until 10 a.m. There will be two stages, six local bands, four bars and complimentary limousine services.

To help you avoid the wait (there is normally a lineup at the front door beginning well before the bar opens) and the $10 cover charge, O'Connor's has offered up four VIP passes for Patch readers; we'll give them away in two sets of two.

For a chance at the passes, post a comment here that tells us why you're feeling lucky this St. Patrick's Day; we'll pick two comments at random, and those readers will each receive two VIP passes.
