Green Beer Day (GBD) is a day-long party, where celebrants drink beer dyed green with artificial coloring or natural processes. The tradition was started by bar owners in Oxford, Ohio, and is celebrated annually on the Thursday before Miami University’s spring break. Green Beer Day started in the early 1980s after a change in Miami University’s academic calendar caused St. Patrick’s Day to fall during spring break when students were gone. Local bar owners tried various names for their new day of drinking (including "Wild Irish Fun" in 1981) before settling on the name "Green Beer Day" in 1982. Claims that Green Beer Day began in 1952 are wrong. Green beer was consumed in Oxford on St. Patrick’s Day (March 17) prior to the university calendar change just as it was all over the country. Gree
