St. Patrick's Day is on Monday, March 17. In the name of all things Irish, we’ve gathered together a collection of Paddy-licious St. Patrick’s Day puns that we think are going to shamrock your world. Or, at the very least, deliver a chuckle or two.
Just ahead, you'll find a total treasure trove of clever one-liners and corny jokes that are — dare we say it — pure gold.
Need a beer pun to accompany an Instagram post of you and your laddies or lassies enjoying a pint on St. Paddy's? The family enjoying corned beef and cabbage? Not to worry, you'll find what you need in the list below. And, trust us, whichever of these inspired puns you choose, it's sure to get ale, er, all the laughs.
In fact, whatever punny saying you've come for, it's here, and once you find just the right one, you'll be, well, clover the moon about it.
If you've noticed all the bad-but-good puns we've tossed in to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, beware, because there are plenty more where those came from. After all, what's St. Paddy's without soda bread, a pint of Guinness and a tongue-in-cheek pun that's — wait for it — lager than life?
We've also included our favorite Irish-inspired dad jokes to get your eyes a-smiling, like: What do leprechauns put on their decks? Paddy o’ furniture, of course.
Feel free to groan because these St. Patrick's Puns are way over the top (of the morning), but that's exactly the point. So, read on, and without further ado, let's get this paddy started!
