What was the original color for St. Patrick's Day?

Answer 1

Saint Patrick's color was blue, not green, say historians. The hue- St. Patrick's blue, a lighter shade- can still be seen on ancient Irish flags 0and was used on 0armbands and flags by members of the Irish Citizen Army, whose 1916 Easter Rising attempted to end British rule. But the use of green on St. Patrick's Day began during the 1798 Irish Rebellion, when the clover became a symbol of nationalism and the "wearing of the green" on lapels became regular practice. The green soon spread to uniforms as well. That evolution, combined with the idea of Ireland's lush green fields, eventually made blue a thing of the past.

Answer 2

YES. Blue was d original color of S. Patrick's Day. It is because one day St. Patrick had ordered a special dish made from the best chef in the whole country. While making the dish a huge a temporary poisonous insect went into the dish without the chef's knowledge. When St. Patrick drank it he turned blue. And as a memory for that day, blue was the color of St. Patrick's Day.
