Its just gone banaras.

Had tickets for the Wales game and just flogged them. Crazy prices for a hotel room.

Then factor in drunken oafs in and out every few minutes and there's little enjoyment to be had.

Went to the France game in the soccer and tbh it was a lot better as people were actually watching the game.

I was offered guest list for Judas Priest on Friday by a mutual friend of ours, but the price of a hotel in Dublin on the Friday of Paddy's was just insane. I'd say even the band found it pricy

I go to Dublin now for work and nothing else. Around once a month I book the 9pm train back so I can go for a few pints in my old local, but thats the extent of my contribution to Dublin’s nighttime economy these days

Heading to a gig up there in June, the same night one of the Taylor Swift gigs is on. Obviously hotels prices are insane. And I also couldn't be dealing with a bus full of Taylor Swift fans. I'm going to drive up and down and do without the few pints.

Just into the pub now. There's a fella wearing a "Votail Putin #1" t-shirt at the the bar. He has 5 pints in front of him and is rambling on about truck drivers and legal professionals.

Less about you though. How's about the other patrons?

Overall a very nice crowd. A mix of locals and tourists. Nice selection of mainstream beers as well as a few local favorites that you'd expect to see in Cork's thriving racing pubs.

You'd miss the BBQ food though. ?

The pub we ended up in tonight didn't even do last call. Just started telling people to leave at around 12:15.

It was quiet enough and I suppose staff were just fed up after the weekend.

Not sure what the city centre was like but based on what I saw in the Douglas Street area, that was a shockingly quiet Paddy's weekend.

It seemed like the afternoons were busy, but places emptied then in the evening and didn't get going again.

It's a long week. People are just off the back of Cheltenham then straight into an early day of drinks today.
It's not out of the ordinary to see local pubs emptying early on 17th. People are full of porter

I was in the Washington street quarter for the match. It was very busy with mostly younger crowd but they all seemed we behaved, I’d imagine that changed later on in the night.
