My brother had a St.

Patrick's uniform that he wore.

Oh, and he had a... And he brought his... It's a green with a hat, and he had a snake...

And when the cleaner came into the room... That's fantastic.

So when the cleaner came into the room, she saw the snake sticking out from under the bed.

Like, I mean, it was serious.

Like, they did evacuate the floor because they go, if there's one, is there two?

Is there how many?

We're going, oh, we just picked it up.

But you look at this, it's rubber.

But it was still, though, whilst the World Cup on, you walk around Fort Lauderdale, you wouldn't know.

When the Brazil team won the final, as we say, not a great final, everyone remembers Baggio's miss.

When they came back to Brazil...

What were the celebrations like?

I've read something somewhere about the Brazil team flying back into Rio, I imagine, and being really late because the players had been out, well, celebrating, but then going and buying loads of consumer goods, so like TVs and fridges and stuff like that, and so they'd been loading all that onto the plane.

Is that right?

Treat yourself.

What sort of reception did the Irish team get when they arrived back in Dublin?

Well, they got a reception, but again, it was a bit like the team.

It was a bit half-hearted, the celebration in 94.
