S.F.'s hottest St. Paddy's Day party was in Supervisor Matt Dorseys office
Supervisor Matt Dorsey hosted a lively St. Patrick's Day-themed party in his City Hall office, inviting guests to partake in Guinness and celebrate the upcoming holiday. Despite his status as a recovering addict, Dorsey expressed that the event was not triggering for him, showcasing a responsible approach to social gatherings. The party featured vibrant decorations, with guests enjoying beer and non-alcoholic options like sparkling water and Irish tea. The event attracted around 50-60 attendees, including notable figures such as the Lord Mayor of Cork, Dan Boyle, who has attended annually.
This celebration followed an Irish flag-raising ceremony led by Mayor Daniel Lurie, which was described as the most festive in years. Dorsey appreciated the continuity of this tradition from his predecessor, Catherine Stefani, highlighting the importance of community and cultural ties. The event not only fostered a sense of camaraderie but also reinforced San Francisco's connection to its Irish heritage. As the city prepares for St. Patrick's Day, this gathering exemplifies the blend of tradition and celebration within local government.
