Video: Crowdsurfing Irish fans take over Cardiff streets

What a night

Gareth Makim

The craic in Cardiff was mighty.

Friends, relatives and just-about-acquaintances have been flooding our social media feeds over the past 24 hours with glorious tales of their day, and night, out in Cardiff yesterday.

Ireland backed up pre-tournament optimism by showing they are live contenders for the Rugby World Cup with a thoroughly professional dismantling of the French, and Ireland’s fans followed that up by showing once again that they are the #bestintheworld.

And what’s better than doing the Rock The Boat dance on a Cardiff street? Crowd-surfing along the line of people doing the Rock The Boat dance of course.

Fair play to the French fans for jumping in as well, although the unfortunate blue-clad supporter at the end of the clip looked set to collapse in much the same way his team did in the second half.
