Kerri: ‘We’re All Irish’

On her morning KVNI/ESPN 1080 radio show today, Kerri Thoreson interviewed retired orthopedic surgeon Dr. John Giesen, who will serve as Grand Marshal of the St. Patrick's Day Parade on Saturday at 4 p.m. in downtown Coeur d'Alene. Writes Kerri, "He regaled our morning show listeners with stories and even an Irish song." Near the end of the interview, Kerri proclaimed: "We're all Irish" this week. Actually, I remain 100% Portuguese. Never wear green on March 17. (KVNI/ESPN 1080 photo)

Question: How many of you are Irish?
