Not too far from where the two other noble warriors stopped their cars to engage in the ancient tradition of unarmed honour combat, right outside the massive, brand new (at the time) Garda station on the extremely busy Dublin Rd. Of course their keenly contested bout went on utterly interrupted to its honourable conclusion
Is this an official event of the Galway arts Festival?
“Boring” they said…
68 previous convictions? There should be a limit on the amount of convictions you can have. I think 50 should be enough for anyone. Then off the cliffs of Moher with ya
Good to see they were being safe and responsible by blocking traffic.
I rang the gardai once about a bare knuckle fight in the middle of the road, holding up loads of traffic. The road was leading from one town to another and the garda wanted to know exactly where it was, in hopes it was more than half way so it would be the other gardai stations problem and not his.
C
Sweeney and Collins. Enough said.
Anyone have a link to a video of it?
Did it happen again? I think just before the pandemic, there was a big fight on the Dublin road, only a few feet away from the new Garda headquarters.
What will their employers think? Could they lose their jobs over this?
NGL I misread it as “bareknuckle fisting” at first.
This is a typical Tuesday night in Sligo, no gaurds would have even been called.
Could you imagine someone rushing to bring a loved one to the hospital, trying to attend an important appointment or whatever the event, and getting delayed because these bastards are celebrating their culture?
This happened years ago infront of the huge dominating new garda building they built there
I believe the winner gets named owner of what’s left of the Lantern bar
Of course it was in feckin’ Galway….
“All play, all sport, until Bernie came to the road. I thought beloved Bernie would live forever after me – yesterday, a mountain-side; today, nothing but a shade.”
This kind of thing used to be exported to England before the Irish started giving bigger handouts than the English.
Cherchez le moolah as the frogs don’t say.
I’ll never understand why concurrent sentences are a thing. Twice the crime at half the time doesn’t seem fair.

Ah, Ballybane. The cultural heart of Galway.

>Men blocked traffic during ‘barbaric’ bare-knuckle fistfight
Why is this a “bare-knuckle” fistfight and not just a fistfight?
It’s their culture boss
