Who's ready to clink those pints with the King in Vegas?
Alright, lads, who’s up for the fuckin’ craic in Vegas next week?! 🥃🔥 Just copped a bottle of Jameson and I’m already seein’ red—time to book the table, shout out the rounds, and make sure every fella in here’s got a pint with their name on it! Remember that night in Dublin when the whole city went mad? Yeah, we’re doin’ that again but bigger, messier, and with way more witnesses this time! Who’s got the wildest McGregor KO gifs saved? Pop ‘em in here quick, ‘cause after three pints none of us’ll be trusted with glasses anyway. Right, lads, let’s get this thread roaring before the whistles blow!
ah feckin hell remember when i was in temple bar some idiot shoved a pint into my hand and swore it was a mac i couldn't see straight but i took it anyways and next thing i knew we were all outside chanting the king's name in the rain like absolute mad lads then i woke up with a shamrock drawn on my forehead and the receipt for a taxi to ballymun still tucked in my sock — but that right there is the magic we're chasing again isn't it? send me that gif of him turning that lad’s lights out mid-air like a flipping superhero on amphetamines — the one where the crowd just... pauses... you can hear a pint drop across half of dublin — yeah that’s the one, lads, that’s our heritage right there.
Remember when the grass was greener 🌱
🤣🍻 so ultra’s story had me snort-laughing into me pint 🍺 now i’m reminiscing about the time i tried to chant the king’s name but my voice gave out after “cor” and some poor lad in the next block thought we were under attack 😂 send that mid-air gif already before i fall off this bar stool
Came to laugh, stayed for life 🍿
ah but you lot are killin’ me with the memories 😭 that rain in temple bar sounds FAMILIAR—i woke up once with a LEPRECHAUN hat glued to my head and a half-eaten donut still in my pocket from “somehow” getting lost in a chipper at 3am 🍩🔥 the receipt in your sock though… that’s next-level loyalty right there 😂 now throw that mid-air KO gif or i’ll send ye ALL black taxi vouchers labelled “ballymun express” 🚖💥 where’s that bloody gif???
You don't abandon your own.
ah man that mid-air KO gif ye’re on about… i’ve seen it a hundred times and it STILL feels like a gut-punch every time ❤️🔥 but y’know what else gives me goosebumps? that time in 2016 when i was queueing for chips in the cobbles and some total stranger just grabs my shoulder and goes “lad, relax, Conor’s putting this lad to sleep RIGHT now” — and bloody hell, he did! 🍟🎤 next thing the whole queue’s singing corra dun in unison while the chip man just shrugs and bags us extra sauce… class act, absolute chaos, i still feel it watching that clip 😭
Daft questions are my specialty.
ever had a pint that tasted like victory only to spill half of it laughing when the lads started doing the "cage dribble" in the middle of a chipper queue at 2:37am? 🍻🤳 i swear last time i saw the king do that mid-air spinning backfist he came down so hard the mat actually bounced back like a trampoline and some poor camera guy’s lens caught the whole thing in slow mo — ye can still see his face in the freeze frame like “oh feck oh god” — but then he doesn’t even miss a beat, just cups his ear like “come on ya bollocks give me the noise” and the whole arena just erupts — send that clip now or we’re ringing the chipper man and ordering every pie on the menu just to spite ye
Been here longer than some have followed.
wait till ye lot see this – that mid-air gif ye’re all on about? yeah i know the one, the face-punch that felt like a firework going off in slow-mo. reminded me of the time i was minding me own business in the Adelphi bar, pint half drunk, and some eejit shouts "the king's down!" and next thing i’ve spilled guinness all over me da’s rugby shirt from 1991. absolute class, absolute tragedy. but what gets me every time isn’t just the KO, it’s the way he pauses after – like he’s savouring the moment with you, right? sends a shiver down the back no matter how many pints i’ve had. send that clip already, lads, or i’m ordering a taxi straight to the cobbles now just for the craic!
Learning from the veterans, go easy 🙏
always loved how when that mid-air spinning backfist lands the first time it feels like the whole bar does a collective wince then everyone just loses it laughing when the ref starts counting and some lad in the corner shouts "he’s still sleeping!" louder than the actual crowd — seen it happen twice now in proper pubs, one time a grandad at the end of the bar just goes "that’s my boy right there" like Conor personally won him the lottery while the telly screen’s still frozen on that bonkers freeze frame where you can see the victim’s cheekbone just… deform… mid-air
Seen it all, lads.
Ah man, ye lot are killin’ me with these stories and that mid-air gif’s still not here! 😂🔥 But honestly though, listening to all this just makes me wish we were back in some Liverpool pub, pints in hand, the telly on mute but the crowd roaring anyway — no phones, no stats, just the craic and that smile before he even throws a punch. Still can’t believe how that one KO looks every time, like watching a magic trick you still don’t get even when you know the trick’s real. Who’s got that bloody gif pinned somewhere or shall we just blame the chipper man for hiding it from us? 🍻🤳
New here, soaking it up.
