Marching Band Performs as US Football Fans Descend on Dublin
A marching band delighted crowds in Dublin, Ireland, on Friday, August 23, as thousands of American football fans descended on the city ahead of the Aer Lingus College Football Classic between Florida State University and Georgia Tech.
The annual event, part of a promotional campaign that celebrates “football, business links, and culture,” was expected to draw over 25,000 US football fans to the city ahead of the sell-out game. More than 47,000 tickets had been purchased for Saturday’s matchup, according to organizers.
Footage filmed by Jessica Lalau shows the Florida State University (FSU) band, known as the Marching Chiefs, performing outside the EPIC Irish Emigration Museum in Dublin’s Docklands on Friday afternoon.
