Five Fermanagh friends were due to travel to France for the Euros, but due to unforeseen circumstances, Baz couldn't make it. #PoorBaz. After spending almost £600, including a ticket Ireland's first match against Sweden, Baz had to pull out at the very last minute. Undeterred, the lads thought they'd put him on a flag so he'd be here in spirit, a nice gesture, but it wasn't enough. Upon further consideration, they thought a specially-made cardboard cutout of Baz would be way more personal. #BazAbroad 4. The Winner takes is all...#BazAbroad pic.twitter.com/Lbu857PNIp

A lone fan just climbed on top of a van and did a striptease for the 1000s of Irish in #Clichy #COYBIG #IRL #SWE pic.twitter.com/JN6kILmcN2 — Eoghan Doherty (@dohertyeoghan) June 13, 2016JOE's Dep Ed and northern star, Eoghan Doherty, is at the heart of the madness capturing probably the greatest video of the tournament so far. One very brave Irish gentleman strips on top of a van and the crowd GOES WILD. After those lot, all that's really left to do is...
