We’re not jealous of this group of incredibly happy looking rugby fans who took in Ireland’s Six Nations title-winning encounter in Paris at the weekend, we’re not jealous at all.

Although there were more than a few nail-biting moments for the many Irish fans gathered in the Stade de France on Saturday, the end result ensured that it was an experience that many of them will recall for some time to come.

To make sure that they have a lasting memento of the historic weekend in the French capital, two of those fans – Ginine Power and Gwendolyn Forde – put together a montage of Irish fans dancing, cheering and generally just enjoying themselves to the tune of the song of the moment, ‘Happy’ by Pharrell Williams.

The girls also managed to include snippets of the victorious Irish team in the team hotel after the match, but while there is no evidence of Paul O’Connell and company dancing away to their hearts’ content like the majority of people in the clip above, we’re sure that they were busting a few moves in a packed Paris pub well into the early hours.
