A Leprechaun is a smart, devious little shoe-maker, who also has a hidden pot of gold. They're rich I tell you. Rich!

Who do they make shoes for, and why do they keep their gold in a pot? I have no idea. A friend of mine sent me the following video today, and it's funny!

It appears that back in 2006, a Leprechaun was spotted in Mobile, Alabama!

I keep losing power ... lots of global warming here in MI. If it goes out again, maybe I'll go out hunting looking for Leprechauns!

How to Get a Pot of Gold from a Leprechaun

  1. Listen for the sound of his hammer. Leprechauns are often busy making a shoe (and only one shoe) for an elf.
  2. Sneak up on the leprechaun.
  3. Hold on to the leprechaun and don't let go. Expect him to put up a pretty good fight, even if he is only about 2 feet tall.
  4. Click title for the rest.
