WATCH: Foil, Arms & Hog educate us on what is and isn’t Irish this Paddy’s Day

Rory Cashin

St. Patrick’s Day is the one day of the year when people all over the world come together to celebrate all things Irish.

Except – SPOILER ALERT! – St. Patrick himself wasn’t actually Irish, having hailed from Wales.

The lads of comedy trio Foil Arms & Hog are here to educate you on all the things that you thought were inherently Irish, but are in fact anything but.

You know the way that people seem to inherit “being Irish”, despite being anything but? Turns out that’s an inherently Irish thing to do!

The lads are setting off on an around-the-country tour in the next few weeks and months before going international, and tickets to their gigs are available via their website here.
