The guy with a teatowel on his head

[Fille Friday]

Found this on a great, funny site, www.overheardindublin.com:


Some years ago (early 90's) I was on my way back to London and my father, who worked in Dublin Airport decided to accompany me down to the gate. We joined the queue for security checks, and I noticed a few famous faces in the queue in front of us. "Look dad, there's Bono from U2" I said, nodding in Bono's direction. "Oh yeah" replies dad, loudly, "and who's the feckin' eejit with the teatowel on his head?".

At that, both Bono and Edge turned around and glared at him.

The band is not directly involved but I thought this was hilarious:

O2 at Croker?

Outside a gate at the side of Croke Park during one of U2's gigs, a few dozen ticketless fans had converged at an area where the gig could be seen free, on one of the big screens on stage.
Two teenaged girls were among the crowd and one of their mobile phone rings.

Girl 1: "Hello...I'm just outside Croker and were watchin the bleedin 'O2' gig for free!"
Security guard: "O2?!!! U2 ye bleedin sap!!"

Very embarrassed she hangs up the phone and says:
"Jaysus, I made a bleedin show of meself with me fella!"

Girl 2: "You don't have a bleedin' fella, that was your aul lad!"

Crowd now oblivious to the U2 gig laugh the 2 of them away from the gate.
