So this is what happens when some hearty, vacation-seeking Irishmen pregame their flight, huh?
On Saturday, an international flight from Ireland to Turkey was forced to make an emergency landing in what has to be one of the more ridiculous Irish drinking stories you’ll ever hear. The Sun Express flight was grounded in Belgrade, Serbia (fuck, right!?), as a result of a beyond intoxicated Irishman stripping completely naked a short time after takeoff then proceeding to demand sex from the flight crew. Better yet, his not-as-hammered friends reportedly egged him on as he helicoptered his dick in fellow passengers faces. Incredible.
The man, who has been identified by the Serbian Interior Ministry as an Irish resident, boarded the Sun Express flight from Dublin to Izmir with a large group of friends on Saturday.
But as the plane took off, it is alleged the man began stripping off, before taking off his underwear and starting to wave his penis around. He then demanded sex with the horrified crew, it is claimed.
When they refused and tried to calm him down, the man reportedly became aggressive and started jumping on the seats – all the while being cheered on by his friends, according to fellow passengers.
What I want to know is, what was this bro drinking!? And the rowdy didn’t stop there, no. After making the emergency landing at the Nikola Tesla airport, all 120 passengers were escorted off so the out-of-control Irishman could be detained by authorities. Where did his friends go, you ask? Straight to the bar, of course, to keep the booze tirade going because clearly they weren’t sauced up enough before. These guys were clearly professionals.
The quotes collected by the Daily Mail with regards to the incredible drinking exhibition are nothing short of spectacular.
Witnesses claim they drank 250 pints of beer between them, and forcing the plane to be delayed by 10 hours.
A police spokesman told MailOnline: ‘There was a girl who was so drunk that she was offering sex to airport employees.
‘The group were chanting and shouting. One could see that they were very drunk.
‘The girl even offered sex to police officers at the scene who were trying to calm the situation down.’
The girl is understood to have been arrested later.
Holy shit, this must be one hell of a crew to run with.
One eye witness at the airport told local media: ‘The Irish group was behaving so aggressively other passengers were terrified to even look at them.
‘I do not remember seeing anything like this in all my years of flying, they were so drunk they didn’t even know where they were.’
A spokesman for the Serbian Interior Ministry said the ‘Irish citizen… was visibly intoxicated, aggressive and very rude.
‘He insulted the crew and resisted the security guards. He even tried to physically attack our officers. He was quickly overcome and detained until he sobered up.’
The detained pair were later allowed to board another flight.
A spokesman for the airport confirmed: ‘Sun Express flight from Dublin to Izmir landed in Belgrade on Saturday, October 17, at 2pm local time.
‘It departed to Izmir on the same day at 11pm.’
I’m not sure if I’d be mad that this asshole delayed my flight for TEN FUCKING HOURS, or impressed. Probably so taken aback at his audaciousness I’d have to applaud. I mean, this is only the kind of thing you’ll witness once in a lifetime. Definitely a story for the grandchildren one day. Not to mention, how did airline officials even let him step foot back on a plane even when he was sober!? Like, if this doesn’t get your flying privileges revoked, what does? Don’t answer that.
If I were these Irish folks, I would totally start a business of catering party flights. Clearly, they’re renowned experts in the field. Irish Drinking Flights. Boom! IDF Air for short. Guaranteed to land with an authentic Irish drinking story.
What could possibly go wrong? Oh wait…
