Not everyone celebrates 'alcoholiday'

CAMPUS – As the sky grew dark over Campustown on Friday, the scene at Unofficial St. Patrick's Day grew louder and rowdier, with green-clad students filling the streets and spilling out of bars and restaurants.

Compared to previous Unofficials, though, "in general, I have to admit, it is less chaotic," Sgt. Bill Emery of the Illinois State Police said at about 8 p.m. Friday.
