Irish sports fans are a witty bunch. They appear at events all over the world, possibly using that Irish charm to blag their way into the expensive seats or possibly getting other people to follow the boys in green.
And then there are Irish fans like these. The obligatory Father Ted reference is a given, but it's the nod to hurling that we're particularly enamoured with.

Some of these should go down in the extensive pantheon of great Irish sporting signs. And now that we've won and everything is grand, we're even willing to see the fun in this.
