5. Experience a St. Patrick’s Day pinch
Location: USA, UK, Canada
Expense: A little
Wearing green on St. Patrick’s Day, a celebration mostly observed in the United States and the United Kingdom, is customary due to the belief that it makes one invisible to leprechauns. You don’t want leprechauns to focus their attention on you since they are cunning and harmful.

Therefore, on St. Patrick’s Day, if you’re not wearing green, anyone can approach you and pinch you as much as they like. That being said, you bear responsibility for the fallout if you chastise someone for not dressing in green; many people won’t take it well.
