Breaking News!!!
Reports are only now just coming in about the new record attempt!
The 1997 World's smallest St. Patricks Day Parade
On the 17th of March 1997, at approximately 6PM,
the world's smallest Saint Patrick's Day Parade took place. The attendance of one ensured that it will
be a difficult record to beat, but I am already planning next year's event, which will be even more ambitious.

The 1998 World's smallest St. Patricks Day Parade
Yes Folks, He's done it again. The world's smallest St. Patrick's Day Parade record has been totally smashed
(as was the organiser!) by an ambitious event involving none other than Shamus the stick insect, who managed a
whopping 2 centimeters before the flag fell off his hand.

The 1999 World's smallest St. Patricks Day Parade
This year we put a little twist on things, and the parade was held in Central Tokyo - covertly!
The challenge; Can we hold a 50,000 person public march without anyone noticing? The answer; simple.
First of all, A Rolling Stones Concert was held as a cover - (Thanks to Mick and the lads for their
assistance!!). At a given signal from me, the Stones finished up their set and the 50,000 marchers left the
Tokyo Dome and headed for the nearest pub. A great success.
Tokyo police fail to spot the masses gathered for the 1999 parade.
The 2000 World's smallest St. Patricks Day Parade
Given the advent of a new millenium, this year the organisers were spurred on to new heights.
For the Year 2000 we decide to go the whole hog and hold a molecular St. Patricks Day Parade.
The millinium parade was marked by a molecule of cuprous oxide (suitably green) migrating
from the terminal of a car battery to the power line of a car navigation system.
Fears of traffic disruption proved unfounded as the event passed without incident.
