The correct spelling is actually crack - the word comes from Scots immigrants to Ulster.

It is yes and I believe that they still do $2 drafts until 6pm-- not been for quite a while though, it certainly had an interesting mix have characters the last time I was in.

i tried the cabage and corned beef tonight. FRIGGING DISGUSTING. First off it wasnt the corned beef i know and hate back in england. Now i have my own corned beef i know and hate here too. first i went and got the beef. said throw in boiling water and simmer for 3 hours. It was bloody disgusting. I cant describe the taste because it was just ... well no wonder they drink guiness. My grandad was irish, family of 11 kids and they all ended up in newcastle. for such a small bloody country they really have a lot of descendents. Every bugger has some relative that is irish somewhere...

Which pub in Boston? I need to find a decent Rugby pub. Please don't say the Black Rose in Government centre.

I think that's called a Gaelic shake.

We have 2 Irish Rugby clubs here for St Patrick's to play our rugby club, one from NI (I think from the Prison System) and one from the Republic.

Also here in Savannah, the parade which started 185 years ago, was organized by Protestants, members of the Hibernian Society, to honor the Irish heritage here, regardless of faith- Catholic or Protestant.

There are three I've tried so far: McGanns (near North Station), Phoenix Landing (Cambridge) and The Green Briar (Brighton). All pretty good in their own way. If you go to Setanta's website it will give you lists of pubs that show the Six Nations (or other sporting events) so I've just been picking off there.

Edit: The Green Briar is just a few doors down from The Battery - a new-ish and reasonable 'Irish' chippy. It's also well-situated for an after-match pub-crawl around Allston (some great beer bars there). Which is why my head hurts as I type...
