Like the 6 nations PA, support Ireland at the rugby, used to support Scotland at the football as I'm blessed to come from parents from both sides, won't support them again because of the SFA/zombies cheating farce. Like watching Mayo in the Gaelic Football as well. Like the boxing but my next fight of choice would be Tyson Fury beating the shit out of Eddie Hearn? Loved watching Marvin Hagler, harder than a Feckin coffin nail that fella.

A great era for boxing PA, Hagler, Hearns, Duran and Sugar Ray, all good value for free on the TV, some bouts nowadays I wouldn't open the curtains to watch mate.
My da was from Belmullet, mum born in Edinburgh, her Father from Mayo and Her mother's side from Donegal

These guys would wipe the floor with the fighters nowadays, as for the heavyweights, smoking Joe Frazier would have Joshua screaming for his mammy?

Watching the Indianapolis 500 today because I can, but not really a racing fan. I used to folllow baseball until I started following football, but I sort of lost interest in baseball.

We call it rounders and the kids play outside so it'll never be an adult game here.

Did you know Dario Franchitti is a massive Hoops man Larry, he comes from a small place not too far from Edinburgh called Bathgate, home of another famous Celtic fan Susan Subo Boyle?
Dario had a younger cousin who raced in formula 1 for a short while, the area is full of huns as well???

 

[lcafiero]

I knew Dario was a Scot, married to some country singer whose name I can't remember. I didn't know he was a Celtic fan.

I knew about Susan Boyle.

Think Dario and Ashley Judd split up.

I knew that she was a Celtic fan. I'm probably only a handful of Americans who know who Susan Boyle actually is.

Unfortunately, "Britain's Got Talent" is not a household standard here. I've heard her, though. She's good.

Rather than derail this thread, I am going to ask about famous Celtic fans on another one.
