During the much-hyped Notre Dame v Navy football game at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on Saturday, a protester from the UK managed to get on the field and performed what some are calling an Irish jig.
Yahoo! Sports writes that, “Jungle Bird,” the nickname for 40-year-old James Andrew Dudley of Wallasey, United Kingdom, made it to the end zone during Saturday’s game where he performed a bit of a jig before heading off the field, only to be met by security.
Dudley has made appearances at other popular events in order to protest deforestation. On Saturday in Dublin, he was apparently protesting Kentucky Fried Chicken and their hand in deforestation.
The American commentators had a bit of a chuckle during Dudley’s display. One said, “How much Guinness do you think he’s had?” while the other noted, “The good side, he did have his clothes on!”

Is this what Britannia is reduced to, (with not a little envy at Ireland's publicity coup at staging a prestigous American sporting event). A union-jack encombed Chicken George making a complete rooster of 'emself. How did he get in in the first place, having escaped his chicken coop. Why didn't he do his protesting back in the UK. Should've been deported back across the Irish Sea to the UK where he belongs. Ireland doesn't need a foreign bird brain like him.

More an English jug than an Irish jig

Nice hat. He may be from West-London(Dublin) but he is not Irish!
