This weekend will be a little luckier for all the Patricks out there. In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, anybody named Patrick — first, middle or last — can get into the Skydeck for free all day on Saturday, March 12. Just show a valid photo ID and head to the 103rd floor!

We checked with the folks at Skydeck, who said that for kids too young to have a photo ID, any official form of ID, like a birth certificate, will do.
