18 things anyone who's been out in Carlow will understand

Hup the town.

CARLOW TOWN, IT’S only some craic.

1. Your night out in Carlow begins with a full blown argument about where to go

A rainy cold Carlow Town! Roaming the streets where my grandmother lived once upon a time! Quite an incredible day healthcoachrobs healthcoachrobs

2.  The Foundry is the end goal

… and you have to tell at least one stranger that it’s the biggest nite club in Ireland, even if you’re not quite sure that it is.

3. But you NEVER go there first

It doesn’t open until half eleven and everyone knows you have to be drunk before you get there.

4. Tully’s is full of students … which makes it the perfect predrinking destination

5. And you’ve made some excellent friends in the toilets

6. You’ve definitely messed in the fountain at some point

7. And been in the photobooth in Scraggs

8. But you know that the best craic is in The Tavern

12. You’ve often been to all the above mentioned places in one night, and you know it’s definitely not possible to avoid at least one of them on a night out

That’s just how they do it in Carlow.

16. Getting kicked out of a venue is no problem once you return after a quick soak up in the Roadhouse

You can’t.

18. Getting a taxi on a weekend is hell

Why does EVERYONE WANT THE SAME ONE? You’ve queued for about four hours at least once.
