O' course, this is an Irish holiday, an' would nay be half as fun if it weren't for the wee Leprechauns. This being the United States, I thought that ye might nay know as much about the little people as we Irish do. So here is a wee article to teach ye everything ye might nay know.
Leprechauns are probably the best known beings of Irish folklore.
However, Lucky the Leprechaun isn t quite the epitome of accuracy in relation to the real Irish lore. Leprechauns were believed to be little men, somewhat like dwarves. However, they are not ugly like the dwarves. They wear green clothes, a red cap, buckled shoes, and a leather apron. These little people were supposed to be shoemakers for the fairies, but they were not the best of cobblers.
