She’s a tad bit over-dressed for the occasion, isn’t she?
We’ve all been there; we promised a friend we would help them with a spot of umpiring on a Sunday morning but you decide to go for a few ‘quiet ones’ on the Saturday night before. One thing leads to another and you end up rushing out the door the next morning, head spinning and still wearing the clothes from the night before.
Perhaps this is what happened in the photo below… although we think it’s unlikely.
We have been informed that the game in question was the Junior A ladies football final taking place in Chicago, USA, and was between the Windy City Gaels and the Chicago St Brigid’s, with the Gaels coming out on top in the contest.
The umpire in question is dressed so glamorously because her team had been knocked out earlier on and, according to Sheamiooo – originally from Westport but currently in the Windy City – “it was finals night and everyone was on the sauce after.”
Standard enough…
Cheers to Jack Mc Aviney for the photo and @sheamiooo for the update.
