Steve met Jess in Dicey’s last night, and has been accidentally texting Paddy Power since…

Oh dear oh dear oh dear.

Sit back and enjoy the story of Steve and Jess. Steve met Jess in popular Dublin pub Dicey's last night and has been engaging in some chit-chat with her today. The only problem is that Steve got Jess's phone number wrong, and has been texting the person running Paddy Power's Twitter account instead. Cue absolute hilarity. How long until poor Steve cops on?

Well this day just got interesting, potentially. I've just received a text that wasn't meant for me. Give me a sec and I'll show you. — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Right, I've blocked out Steve's number because I'm sound that way. Help me out Twitter, what do I reply? pic.twitter.com/dysztl8Utf — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Here's my reply folks. I've decided to be feminine and also use a little bit of text speak. Now we wait. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/AsuQqwGPEE — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

This lad's keen. Only waited 8 minutes before replying. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/m2hK1257l7 — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Alright, here's my reply. Played it safe. Gave a double kiss though, stepping it up. We wait. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/YbSFWWWlow — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

STEVE'S TYPING! #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/bQ3ECEXTxM — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

It's been 12 minutes and still no reply from Steve. He's slacking. In the comfort zone already. #PPTexts — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

He's gotten on board with the double kisses! It's on, folks. What do I reply? #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/OFHkBndQCI — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Alright. Cheeky Paddy and Soccer Saturday reference. Wink face, but just one kiss. Mind games. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/YCAqCy4Yi9 — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

I'm gonna need your help replying to this one folks. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/1q6Db8m3Q3 — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Breaks my heart, but in the interests of authenticity, I'm making an intentional mistake in my reply. 'Your' instead of 'you're'. #PPTexts — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Alright. Intentional grammatical error and three kisses. And a suggestive invitation. Come on Steve! #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/cCPbvKSWgn — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Very disappointing on the kisses front. Think I'll have to be busy tomorrow so. Thoughts? #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/vkY6s24yN4 — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Repeat of the intentional grammar error. Stone Cold Steve Austin reference. Uncle Paddy again. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/VPaD99SyiX — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

I'm starting to quite like Steve. He seems like a decent fella. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/mC7LCeXyEL — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Pretty happy with this response. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/rE8yfW7weQ — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

So Steve keeps himself fit. Good to know. #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/ZIMM4EwFYI — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014

 

Kept it simple on my reply. Gonna take this opportunity to get dinner. I'll update when he replies! #PPTexts pic.twitter.com/IlZqj8DM1s — Paddy Power (@paddypower) August 9, 2014
