THE IRISH HAVE well and truly descended on Las Vegas ahead of Conor McGregor’s bout against Jose Aldo tonight.
Yesterday, a few of them stopped in at a Q&A with Holly Holm, the fighter who knocked out Ronda Rousey last month.
One Irish fan took the opportunity to serenade Holm with a rendition of Can’t Take My Eyes Off You, complete with the DUH-DUH DUH-DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH bit.
Look at her. She’s mortified. In her eyes is a silent cry for help.
You really can’t take us anywhere.

Get ready for a November election
Canvassing will be starting again on monday.
Why is it people with strong political attachments are allowed to be part of the count? What’s the criteria for selection?
What do you mean part of the count? The counting is done by public servants as far as I know. Each candidate is allowed a certain number of observers, which is only right, but they observe the counting, they don’t do it.
What happens now? We all give thanks that the bloody politicking is over for now.
No think we have to endure it at least one more time with another general election
How do people get selected for these election jobs. In my village there were at least six people working when it seemed to me that two would have been suffice .I didn’t know any of them
In that photo the one in the green top still has a polling station pencil in her hand lol.
have your say
