Why is the Blarney stone in Ireland, supposed to give you good luck? Did St. Patrick bless it or something?

Q:

A: No St. Patrick was long gone when "Blarney" came about. The Blarney stone is in the Blarney castle. By climbing way up there, and kissing the stone, which appears to be a terrifying experience, gives you the "gift of gab".
