Remember that time we sent Dustin the turkey to the Eurovision? That just popped in my head
McGregor.
Mrs Browns Boys.

Mick Wallace
Those two fellas who keep recording themselves reacting to Liverpool games. I wouldn’t normally care but for some reason they incite a fiery rage within upon seeing them
Connor McGregor

That shitstain rapist who is some sort of MMA fighter when he’s not beating up the elderly.
Can’t remember his name though. Something something “Irish sports star”
Never mind embarressing celebrities or single events, sure every country has them.
Our drinking culture is easily the most embarrassing thing we are known for.
When you really look at it, it’s fucking pathetic what we do to ourselves.
This is coming from a pint lover.
Catholic missionaries and paedophile priests. We’re not the only country that produced them but still
early days of jedward they seem like good dudes these days but that time was mega cringe for all of us
100% Mcgregor
The Magdalen Laundries or the Christian Brothers. Two prodigious organizations of abuse.
At present, I’d say Mick Wallace and Claire Daly using their platform as MEPs to parrott Russian propaganda on a global stage is pretty embarrassing.
Especially when their talking points are at odds with the majority opinion of Irish people.
For a few years there, I found John Delaney’s antics as FAI CEO to be a little hard to stomach. I think we’re the only country to ever have a celebrity football administrator.
I wouldn’t know who his English counterpart was if I fell over him in the street, and that’s probably the way it’s meant to be. He was paid to promote the game, not himself. Not to mention he earned considerably more than CEOs of footballing associations that routinely contested the finals of international tournaments.
And I’ll join the chorus of Redditors nominating McGregor. He’s a hyper-aggressive, thin-skinned primmadonna who squandered his potential at the peak of his athletic ability.
He is vain, obnoxious, materialistic and a thoroughly unpleasant individual completely lacking in self-awareness. And he thoroughly deserved the hiding Khabib Nurmagomedov gave him several years back.
Tipperary born Catholic who was brought up with a resentment for the Fenian cause and a deep love of Britain.
He was governer of the Punjab region in India and had as many people hanged there during his tenure as were hanged in all of Britain at the time.
Oh and he was in charge during the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in Amritsar in 1919. Hundreds (or possibly over a thousand) people killed in an attack on a totally peaceful urban crowd. He maintained the decision to fire was correct up until his death, which was at the hands of a Sikh assassin twenty years later.
One of our worst.
The 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th top answers are Connor. Followed by pedophile priests
Linda Martin singing daft punk/lara croft om the late late
That bonkers priest who interrupted a marathon.
The magdalene laundries. Our treatment of women. No condoms for sale until the 90s. Brian cowen and the bank bailout.
The only answer is the septic tank in Tuam, a stain on this island that will never be removed. Never has one incident made me so ashamed to be irish. How anyone still goes to mass or believes in God I’ll never understand.
