Ireland’s tiny kit man dressed up as Superman to celebrate their Euro 2016 place
November 16, 2015
Ireland upset Bosnia and Herzegovina in their Euro 2016 qualification playoff to reach the finals for the second consecutive time. After winning the second leg 2–0 at home, the Irish celebrated in the dressing room with pint-sized kit man Dick Redmond barreling in dressed as Superman.
“I’m 60 and I’m going to France!” he shouted after getting doused with beer by the players. Brilliant.
Ireland will join England, Wales, and Northern Ireland as representatives of the British Isles at Euro 2016, leaving Scotland to pretend it has something better to do that month.
