The Irish have invaded Las Vegas to support their fellow countryman Conor McGregor in his fight against Floyd Mayweather. There is said to be an estimated 15,000 British and Irish fight fans in Vegas to support McGregor. Including Piers Morgan.
The Irish are literally painting Las Vegas orange, white, and green.
Somebody has put an Irish flag and painted 49-1 on a Floyd Mayweather billboard in Las Vegas…

The entire city of Las Vegas now has a European soccer feel.
The boisterous bunch was celebrating into the wee hours of Saturday morning.

A spontaneous and spirited “Stand Up, Sit Down, Shoes Off for the Boys in Green” chant erupts at the T-Mobile Arena.
St. Patrick’s Day in Boston has nothing on the Irish festivities going down in Vegas.

Vegas! A good-hearted McGregor song is sung by Irishmen, which ends in an “Olé, Olé, Olé” chant.

Let’s hope that the bars ordered enough Guinness because the mood of this fun-loving posse could go south tonight.
