Fathers for justice, eh?
While the Rose of Tralee has largely gone off without a hitch so far – how about those fireballs, eh? – one of the most interesting moments occurred when an intruder, dressed as a priest, gatecrashed the stage.
The ‘priest’ was screaming ‘fathers for justice’ at the top of his lungs as he took to the stage. Credit to Dáithí Ó Sé and the rose that was on stage at the time because they both handled the incident well.
Take a look.
