"I was met with the most remarkable sight as hundreds of roaring bodies, draped in green and coated with sweat from the 40° heat, united in one shared desire to simply have a good time."The Irish are the best at just having a good time, and when there's a worthy cause, like Conor McGregor attempting to create history and condemn Floyd Mayweather to defeat for the first time in his boxing career, they were bound to be on song.
