And on August 6th, thousands celebrated their triumph with a rendition of Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You on the streets of Dublin.
Look, we’re as clueless as you, and sometimes it’s better not to ask questions.
Dame Street played host to jubilant scenes as members of the public gathered to celebrate the athletes’ incredible performance in London, and it wasn’t long before one of the world’s best known Christmas songs was wheeled out.
Sure look, why not?
And then the woman herself got wind of the country’s celebrations.

Retweeting the video, Mariah sounded only delighted to have been included in the nation’s delight, and even threw in a few tricolour emojis for good measure.
Good woman, yourself.
You’re not wrong, Mariah.
