Irishman fined after getting stuck in roof

SYDNEY: -- An Irishman couldn't walk into a bar, so he tried to get in through the roof.

It may sound like a bad joke but it turned into an expensive night out for an Irish tourist on the Gold Coast who ended up having to be cut out of the roof cavity.

Hugh McMahon, 18, has been forced to pay $2600 in fines and damages after having to be freed from a roof near the Sin City night club in Surfers Paradise.

McMahon was trying to get back into the club via the roof after being kicked out twice, the first time after he was spotted sleeping on a couch inside the popular night spot.

The teenager, in Australia on a 12-month working holiday, broke into the roof space through a sliding door at the Promenade Apartments on Orchid Ave.

Now that's news.

Poor simple fool.

[catterwell]

Ah, customer loyalty.

[HeijoshinCool]

I hear he slid off the roof, and came down with a bad case of shingles.

[krisb]

Ahh, the things we do when drunk!

[DeaconJohn]

He'll head for Thailand next.

I thought it was lucky, to have a irishman stuck in your roof cavity...

Did he have a pot of gold?

[Suradit69]

He'll head for Thailand next.

But if he gets similarly stuck in Thailand, the Thai Visa experts will blame it on Thai construction standards.

Silly

[RickBradford]

I hear he slid off the roof, and came down with a bad case of shingles.

I hear he was booted out for trying to put all his drinks on the slate. It's the kind of thing you do when you're out on the tiles.

[barberpg]

Say no more. he is Irish!

[slipperylobster]

Do these Irish guys get lots of Thai girls hooking up with them?

you know..... I rich guy .

[salty]

Australia has not been impressed with many Irish visitors who do not seem to have any brains.

[RickBradford]

The gutter press will be onto this story like a rat up a drainpipe....

[Songhua]

Those Surfers Paradise clubs are always packed to the rafters.

[expatoz]

and what about the new irish parachute crikey " it opens on impact "

[USNret]

Isn't this the premise for the movie "Hangover" where buddies lose their drunk friend on the roof? Maybe this is just a promotion for "Hangover 4: Ireland vs Oz".

An Irish guy went missing on a Sunday night out in Sydney recently after drinking at the local Tea Gardens bar in Bondi Junctions' Eastern Suburbs.

His disappearance resulted in posters being put up around the area and leaving local police baffled as to where he could have vanished to as CCTV offered nothing.

Any how on Tuesday afternoon he was discovered in the stairwell of a office fire escape 'disorientated and dehydrated some four floors up a office building..across the road from the pub!!

I don't know you bloody Irish..and 'the crack'..LoL!!
