    The Emerald isle is Ireland. We all associate the color green with Ireland, and it's one third of the colors in the flag. The irony of this is, St. Patrick's official color (for himself) is actually blue. Hope this helps.

    St. Patrick is the Patron Saint of Ireland. Though his personal color is blue (believe it or not) the traditional color for Ireland is Green. Gotta love the green!

    Leprachauns wear green, clovers are green, shamrocks are green, the beer is green on St Patty's Day.

    Maybe cause it's the coolest color in the Ireland flag.

    or...

    Maybe it's cause Ireland is really green?
