She also saw the sign advertising the St. Patrick's Day costume contest, so of course she knew she would enter it once again.

St. Patrick's Day Costume Contest - March 11, 2017 at Flanigan's Restaurant

Karen Duquette was dressed as "Flanigan's Irish Beer Barrel." Lee Duquette made the beer barrel. The shamrocks on the barrel flashed green. The lights at the bottom of the barrel also flashed green, and so did Karen's glasses.

Karen Duquette has entered the contests for 8 years and each and every year, the employees and customers always say she has the best costume, and Karen is asked to pose for photos constantly by patrons.

Karen enjoys the day because it is always fun to design a costume. (Note: The Pot of Gold (2014) and the Irish Beer Barrel (this year- 2017) EACH cost over $100 to make). Karen loves the kids that march through the restaurant and the very talented bagpipe player, the food, the atmosphere and the decorations. She also brings her family and friends there for the contest, usually 12 or more people, and they all have dinner afterward. Karen also often eats lunch there with dance friends during the week.

Below: A few photos were taken after Karen Duquette took off her beard so she could eat. But the beard left some green on her face. And that was when the Leprechaun and bagpipe player decided they wanted a photo with Karen.
