Update: The votes are in and it was a close call on Land O' Lakes' favorite place to spend St. Patrick's Day. While the Original Beef 'O' Brady's and Ukulele Brands tied in the voting, Beef's edged out the competition with one rating, one review and one Facebook recommend on its directory listing. Congratulations to the Original Beef 'O' Brady's!
