I'm assuming this is the Scottish equivalent to...the 4th of July?  Or is it Memorial Day?

Or St. Patrick's day... or something of the like?  Personally, I've never heard of Saint Andrew... but I'm not big into the saints...

St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland, Russia & Romania.  It's where the cross on the saltire comes from

Hey... Just because we're not big on our 'christian patron saints of < enter country name here >' is no reason to look down on us. Sorry for having a lower quality education system. Sorry for not paying 100% attention to the church. And Sorry for being born on American soil...

That's odd, I didn't think we had any Russians or Romanians on here...
...what was that third country you mentioned? Belgium, was it?

You do realise St. George is patron saint of Georgia, don't you?
