Norm from Cheers attempts to speak Irish, fails

Where everyone doesn’t know your language.

SOMETHING MAY-LE FALLCHE. George Wendt aka Norm from Cheers took a road trip with his wife along the Wild Atlantic Way.

They golf, badly pronounce Irish greetings, bring up the famine, use clichéd phrases like ‘the luck of the Irish’…

Basically, they’re deadly.

He got the post-Guinness sip ‘ahh’ just perfect though.

Forget Kim and Kanye… Norm from Cheers is on holidays in Ireland>

Michael Fassbender can do a mean impression of Sir Ian McKellen>
