St. Patrick's Day Contest Winner

Congratulations to Madelyn Klupfell, the winner of Orthodontic Partners' St. Patrick's Day Trivia Contest. Madelyn was the 1st person we drew who had all the correct answers. She is thinking about using her prize money to purchase accessories for her American Girl dolls.

This contest was pretty tricky so in case you need to brush up on your St. Patrick's Day Trivia here are the answers:
  1. St Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland.
  2. St. Patrick died in 461 AD
  3. This is one a lot of people got wrong... St Patrick did not drive the snakes out of Ireland. That's just a well known myth.
  4. We wear green in memory of Ireland and so we don't get pinched.
  5. A Leprechaun is a make believe Irish Fairy who makes shoes... not a little man with a red pointy hat as many people thought.
  6. It is said there is a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
  7. There are four leaves on a lucky clover.

We hope you enjoyed our contest and had a wonderful St Patrick's day. May the luck of the Irish be with you.
