Why You Should “Worship” Saint Martin: The Patron Saint of Drunken Sailors and Good Tippers
TL;DR: Saint Martin, the patron saint of ahem tourism in Hawaii, is a jolly, beer-loving dude who watches over party animals, lushers, and those who spread the good word of aloha with generous tips. If you're looking for a divine excuse to down some Mai Tais and make some new friends, St. Martin's got your back.
Saint Martin: The Patron Saint of Party Animals
Saint Martin, bishop of Tours, lived a colorful life filled with miracles, drinking, and partying. Legend has it that he once cut his cloak in half to share with a freezing beggar. So, naturally, he became the patron saint of sharing, generosity, and all things alcohol.
Why Saint Martin is the Patron Saint of Hawaii
Hawaii, a land of aloha and tourism, has embraced Saint Martin as its patron saint because he embodies the spirit of the islands: welcoming, generous, and always up for a good time. Tourists flock to Hawaii to experience the joie de vivre and party scene, and Saint Martin is right there with them, blessing their tipples and ensuring a hangover-free tomorrow (or at least a mild one).
Benefits of Worshipping Saint Martin
If you're thinking about converting to the Cult of Saint Martin, here are a few perks:
- Divine hangover protection: Pray to Saint Martin before a night of revelry, and he'll watch over your liver and keep the spinning sensation to a minimum.
- Generous tips: Saint Martin is a firm believer in the power of tipping. Those who generously bestow their wealth upon servers and bartenders are said to be blessed with good luck and future cocktail discounts.
- Eternal party pass: As the patron saint of party animals, Saint Martin grants his followers a free pass to dance the night away, sing karaoke like there's no tomorrow, and wake up feeling refreshed and ready to do it all again.

And guide us safely through the night so long.
