For Caitlin Costello, St. Patrick's Day has more significance than plastic hats and green beer. The holiday means corned beef and potato dishes with her huge family at her grandmother's house in Notre Dame, IN. They all lived close enough to the stadium that their addresses were Notre Dame, not South Bend. She never stood a chance against falling in love with her family's Irish roots. Hearing about how the holiday has changed in her life since she came to school in Chicago (to defy her Notre Dame surroundings!) was a real joy.
