    Or is it FM104, I dunno. All I know is Ive been jumped by 3 people in the Blanch centre asking if I was him. The first one I walked by, thought she was mad. Whats the clues for this anyway anyone know? (dont listen to much radio myself, havent been following it and im not near the radio at the mo)


    *looks at myself and assess the "are you him" asking ratio*

    Hmm, clearly dark haired, strikingly handsome and wearing an Argentina jersey must have been the clue :cool:

    I really want someone to approach me and ask me am I the fugitive. I would pretend I was, then get them to ring 98fm or go to their booth thing.

    @octavarian - that would be hilarious...NOT - grow up!! And your 'plan' is not how it works anyway.

    Somebody actually did that to someone I know and they were lucky not to get a hiding.

    Bollocks. My 5 seconds of careful deliberation and schemes has been foiled already. How can I live?

    anyone stupid enough to run around the Clondalkin SC with 500 other idiots looking for one idiot in particular deserves to have the piss taken out of them. The 98fm fugitive sounds like a bit of a dirty perv to be honest

    The 98fm fugitive is in blanchardstown all day today.

    Ya've to ask "Are you the 98fm fugitive?" If you asked the right person you get given a brown envelope and he runs off.

    Lots of info http://www.98fm.ie/Newsite/Promotion/fUGITIVE3/fugitive.asp

    The current bounty is €9500 I certainly wouldn't say no if I found him. If only I didn't have to work.

    Correct :)

    Correct :eek:

    How you know that :confused::p *steps slowly away from computer*

    Blanchardstown is a big place ! It could also mean Blanchardstown village !!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,364 ✭✭✭ionapaul


    I was asked whether I was the fugitive last week while walking on Grafton St by a very shy country girl. Funny stuff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap


    Was asked 6 times in about 200 yards of a walk today, they came into the restaurant where we were eating for my dad's birthday.

    A friend of mine was even asked had they seen the fugitive.

    ****ing idiots.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 2,979 ✭✭✭fdevine


    He's guaranteed to be in the Blanch Shopping Centre all day.

    Apparently the place is mental.....

    98FM are running a penalty shootout competition at the Red entrance too, with 02 phones and a TV as prizes.

    No apparently about it, its ridiculous. There's no way he could avoid all the people there.

    I walked from the library to Pizza Hut and back to the library and was asked 6 times.

    I think it's a terribly irresponsible promotion... they're using greed to motivate all the thugs and scumbags in the city to hassle people going about their business.

    One guy grabbed me by the arm the other day and started asking me if I was the fugitive, I told him to f*ck off, and he started kicking me.

    I can almost guarantee you the fugitive has been asked about 100 times today and said no.

    It's the biggest sham going.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    It's an absolute disgrace though. I don't listen to their terrible radio station and I'm not playing their stupid game... why should I have to put up with harassment and abuse because of it?

    I'm definitely going to be filing a complaint with the Broadcasting Complaints Commission.

    LOL at that !!! Sorry ;)

    Did you give him a smack??

    Yes it is. The guy changes every day as well, the clown that "rings in" to the station is sitting nextdoor to the studio and is just some voiceover guy.
    The actual fugitive are just hired random punters who have fack all else to do. Sort of defeats the purpose if they used the same guy all the time. But whats to stop the guy from saying no if you did catch him? Focking pile of ****e.

    Well I got pretty angry and started ranting at him about getting a life an not to be listening to such ****e radio and bothering people.

    It was all pretty heated and he had a bunch of his gobsh*te friends around him shouting at me too... luckily.. what I guess was a female in their group decided to pull him back from the confrontation... I decided it wasn't worth pursuing and went on my way only to be harrased by other rude people, who get really angry at you if you say 'NO' in a curt manner to them... 98fm's demographic seems to be mostly composed of scum.

    Fair play. I was sitting having dinner in the Blanchardstown Centre for my fathers birthday earlier and a woman came up to me and asked my whole family if we were the fugitive. I let rip at her.

    Also, a friend of mine works in the centre (wears a uniform and everything) and has been asked dozens of times already today.

    And best of all, a friend of mine who is a Garda was asked one day while in full uniform. The idiot thought he might be "in disguise".

    Well if it wasn't before it certainly is now. The fugitive was apparently caught in the Leisureplex in Blanch before. I'd say the e9,000 was cashed in 50cent coins and spent on the ****ing dance machines and slot machines.

    fair enough he was annoying you but telling him to **** off is asking for a kicking. what's wrong with a simple no? people like that are dying for someone to tell them to **** off so they can kick them

    I don't apreaciate being grabbed by total strangers in a shopping centre accusing me of being part of a pathetic radio promotion... I had every right to tell him to f*ck off.

    If more people told these rude idiots to f*ck off then maybe they'd start to think twice about hassling other people.

    Or just even ignore them, thats fair enough. But what about sitting in a restaurant and people going around to each table asking... now thats annoying.

    But that's a really selfish assumption that just because one person thinks it's fun that everyone else should accept that. Some people don't like being bothered when they're just trying to get through the day.
