Ever come to Ireland on a non-drinking holiday?

You'd probably have to be drunk while booking the holiday too...
 
There are plenty of activity driven holidays like fishing, hiking, sailing, golfing etc. that do not revolve around drink. There's more to tourism in this country than Temple Bar.

Every one of those activities is better when youre drunk
 
My school has many Irish connections due to the large Irish-American Catholic population in Washington D.C. Every year, after their graduations, a solid percentage of seniors go to Ireland and drink...a lot. Recent alumni go and drink...a lot. Parents of these seniors go and drink...a lot. All in all, a great Irish tradition.

So,it's a nice tradition.
They must have a special drink coming from Irish tradition:Like Mexicans tequila or Greek's raki.
 
Nice racial stereotyping there. I'm Irish, I live and often holiday in Ireland. I don't drink, I used to, but got mighty fed up of hangovers.

Holidays are for relaxing not for hangovers.
IMHO people who only go on holiday to drink are at the very least boring. But that's just my opinion.
 
They have non-drinking holidays in Ireland?

N.B.: I realize that the ambiguity arises from the fact that "holiday" has two meanings in Ireland (and most of the rest of the English-speaking world) but only one in the US.
 
Typical tourist in Ireland:

I've never been to Ireland on any kind of holiday. :(

If I ever had the chance to go, I'd want to see the historic castles, soak up the scenery, do some genealogical research (my mom's side of the family is Irish), and listen to music, more music, and more music after that! :D

And all of my drinking would be of the non-alcohol variety.

thanks a lot. when I went to Canada I got hammered
 
I would imagine it would be hellishly boring if you werent drunk
I've been to Ireland 3 times and although we've had some drinks I wouldn't call it an alcoholic holiday. And I've enjoyed it very much. And certainly not boring at all.
