Georgia Tech vs. Boston College Football in Dublin, Ireland

It was a wet and dull day in Dublin yesterday - but we didn't let it stop us having fun.


At the last minute we decided to go to the College Football Game in the Aviva Stadium.  


Boston College and Georgia Tech were playing their first game in Ireland and boy was it a spectacle.


To be honest, I found it so hard to concentrate on the game with everything else that was going on.


It was unlike anything else I've seen in Ireland, what with the bands, the dancers, the cheerleaders and the pyrotechnics.


There was also a fly-by planned but I think it was cancelled due to the bad weather.







We dressed for the weather and were mainly under roof for the game. 

Both bands were fantastic. The highlight for me was Boston College band playing Sweet Caroline.


We were sitting 7 rows from the front so had a great view.
   

A great game - well done to Georgia Tech!

Afterwards we went to Slatterys for a few before walking home. What a great day!
