I have actually been to the Puck Fair, twice. Killorglin is about as Irish as you can get. My mother almost won the raffle for the pig.

I know the words are English, but I couldn't really follow what was happening in the story. I think it takes a team of 13 wicketkeeper, bowlers, and bludgers to trap a goat.
“So in all there’s no acting the goat on this issue,” quipped Ms Gildernew. The goat, which was caught by Séamus Blaney and 12 men, may be the offspring of a goat trapped in the McGillycuddy Reeks for the Oul Lamas Fair in 1979. Release it – just for the craic.
