Many fans have gone to extremes to watch their club, but would you get a job with your club's biggest rivals so you can watch your club's biggest game of the season? Well that's what this Celtic fan did on Sunday.
On Sunday if you somehow missed it, there was the Old Firm derby between Celtic and Ranger at Ibrox and the game was going to be crucial in deciding who would win the Scottish Premiership and get that lucrative automatic qualification to the Champions League.
Not many fans wanted to miss that but this Celtic fan went to the extreme, especially as it was the first Old Firm game with away fan allocation in years.
One young Celtic fan went to the extreme: he went and got a job in Ibrox, working as a kiosk assistant in catering at the stadium, hid in the toilets and then was able to get into the away end to join the rest of the Celtic fans in cheering on the Bhoys.
His story was first shared by a Belfast Bhoys fans on Twitter.
Met a kid yesterday in ground who’d applied for a job as kiosk worker decked out head to toe in work gear and he’d to start at 9am, min he got into ground to work he hid in toilets till celtic fans got in then was bouncing about with us all day, I salute you kid what a move 👏

His risk definitely paid off as he got to see Celtic win 2-1 after goals from Tom Rogic and Cameron Carter-Vickers cancelled out Aaron Ramsey's early opener for Rangers in what was a blockbuster first half in Glasgow.

That result put's Celtic six points clear on top of the Scottish Premiership with one game to go before the split. The top six teams and bottom six teams are split and each club will play five more games against the other five teams in their section. So Celtic and Rangers will face off again next month in the league as well as their Scottish Cup semi-final they have later this month.
With the huge reward of automatic qualification to the Champions League and Champions League coming, this could be one of the most pivotal title races in the history of Scottish football.
