The Paddy Power lads have done it again…

Paddy Power have pulled off one of their best stunts yet by convincing notorious euro sceptic Nigel Farage to make a video supporting Europe before they take on the US at the Ryder Cup.

The controversial leader of the UK Independence Party has showed his lighter side by appearing in this spoof party political broadcast video for the bookmaker.

With Ryder Cup fever primed to hit Europe with a bang this weekend, Farage has released a rallying cry of support for Team Europe who will be teeing off against Team U S of A, at Gleneagles tomorrow.

A spokesperson for Paddy Power said “We don’t take sides when it comes to politics but we certainly do when it comes to the Ryder Cup. And when Nigel is coming out for Europe you know the whole continent is behind the team.”

Well played, lads.
