While leprechauns are not widely regarded
as the handsomest creatures, if you happen to look like one, you might
win a prize at the Fremont Street Experience. The leprechaun look-alike
contest is one of many activities planned for the downtown venue. You
can also test your Jell-O eating skills and dance like the Irish.
Local 80’s band, Loveshack, will perform for free Friday and Saturday
nights along with Irish band, Whiskey Galore. Naturally, green beer
will flow from the outdoor bars that line Fremont Street, and
Fitzgeralds Casino will be serving up plenty of corned beef sandwiches.
