Guinness calls for official St. Pat’s

In March 2008 Guinness published, in the USA Today, an open letter to the US Congress, a petition to make St Patrick’s Day an official holiday.
To launch the event we created a series of films showing the envious reaction about it from other famous American National Holidays.

The event also included a rally in New York City, hosted by Carson Daly, to make St. Patrick's Day an official holiday.
