Magic reaction to a special night.

A lot of the country is still on a high following Conor McGregor's fantastic 13 second TKO victory over Jose Aldo in Vegas. Back at home, loads of us stayed up until the wee hours to catch a momentous occasion in Irish sport, including Brian Russo Clancy and his friends. The gang were in Limerick city to watch the fight and they filmed their priceless reactions. These snaps are hilarious and sum up the tension and joy that the whole nation felt early on Sunday morning. As Brian said to JOE, "It was a great night for Ireland". Indeed.

The nerves
