    Can you imagine the work syndicate in J&J hearing the rumours they'd won, going to their guy that organises it and buys the ticket to be told, "I swear to Christ Lads. We didn't win!!!" "My Hole Boi!! Me and the rest of the lads will be taking shifts parked outside your house in case you try and make the Dash to Shannon with all your suitcases in the middle of the night!!"

    I read that in a Cork accent. It's priceless.

    :D

    The shop owner (clondalkin) said his hoax was "hilarious"... Nah mate. Makes you a spoofer.

    Like if he did it just to promote his shop so be it. Just come out and say that. Otherwise spoofer.

    This is a worrying sign of things to come in this FB, 15min of fame obsessed world we live in.

    Although it didn't have any effect on me personally, I think a guy starting a rumour he sold the ticket, having media outlets coming to Cork etc, and then he thinks its a 'bit o craic' is just plain wrong. He's an asshole plain and simple.

    We will be flooded with comedians like this in the future, where "sure it was only a bit of craic" will cover everything. Until someone comes up with a way to sue idiots like this.
