Syracuse is suffering through a brutal winter, but hundreds still gathered at Coleman's Irish Pub for Green Beer Sunday.

The freezing temperatures this past week did not stop one community located on Syracuse's Far Westside from celebrating their annual Green Beer Sunday.

Coleman’s Irish Pub, located in Tipperary Hill, started the tradition over five decades ago. 

"My grandfather started Coleman’s in 1933,” said parade organizer Beth Coleman Deehan. “This started 52 years ago just as a way to get some excitement when in the middle of a dreary winter and get people looking forward to spring.”

The nightlong event was structured like a bar crawl, except most of the attendees dressed as the undead.

Those who decided to go out last Saturday night at Tipp Hill likely encountered someone with a bloody wounds and tattered clothes.

There was not some fierce battle -- just a lot of makeup application and clothing destruction for the 6th annual Zombie Crawl on October 19.

The event was structured like a normal bar crawl, except many of the attendees didn’t look like they should be alive.
