While the city was getting ready for a night of green-clad celebration, Victoria Police officers were busy gearing up for the next 12 hours.
According to their Twitter feed, VicPD officers responded to a total of 82 calls for service between 5 PM and 5 AM last night.
Between them, they were able to make sure everyone had a fun and safe night of partying it up, Ireland style.

Among the calls they attended were reports of uncooperative patients, “indecent acts”, shoplifters, rash drivers and much more.
They closed out the night by shutting down a disruptive party at a local hotel, and sharing a hilarious Star Wars gif to go with it:
