Historically, Columbus Day is the "Italian-American Patriotism" holiday. But it doesn't seem to be associated with drinking or the stereotype of drinking.
Honestly I don't think people even associate it with Italians anymore. But it's generally Italian-American clubs that are the ones pushing back against replacing Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day.
I dont know about Italian equivalents, but an Illinois state holiday is Casimir Pulaski day, the Polish get-sloshed holiday
what if there was a get-sloshed holiday for the great nation of 🏳️⚧️
