As if the last year and a half couldn't get any weirder..
We've seen many a strange crossover down the years, but Vito Spatafore supporting Dundalk might just take the biscuit.
A video emerged in the last 24 hours on social media from Irishify, a celebrity shout-out platform, donning Vito from The Sopranos in a Dundalk cap and jersey.
The sight of that alone is enough to have you in disbelief. What ensued after was a video of Vito congratulating Dundalk on their 2-1 win over Shamrock Rovers.
"We beat the shams like a golf club beat my f*cking brother Brian."
Vito, real name Joseph Gannascoli, took particular aim at Dundalk midfielder Patrick McEleney, who scored the opener in their win.
"And fats, he got the opener, Patrick McEleney, my boy, way to go kid you fat bastard."

The self proclaimed 'Joey F*cking G' is seen smoking a cigar in his back yard. He ribbed more of the Dundalk players, saying "Daniel Kelly? More like Danielle Kelly, eh?".
In what might be it's biggest endorsement to date, Vito watched the game on WATCHLOI and said "I'm gonna be watching it again". Someone might need to tell him the service is ending in a few weeks.
He ended with the rather inspirational line, "Dundalk, way to go guys. I'll be f*cking watching. Don't let me down. Take it easy."
Vito from the soprano's as Dundalk boss?
