    So apparentkly Obama will be making a speech at Croker around the 23rd/24th of May.

    I was wondering do you need to buy tickets or just walk in because I'd imagine more than 80,000 people would want to see this event.

    I'm realy excited and just want to get the full story.

    If it doesn't clash with my school grad night I will defo be going.

    Eh? A bit of overkill if you ask me.

    I'm fairly confident he would sell out Croke Park assuming tickets were not that expensive.

    If he comes on the 24th he will supposedly be holding a rally outside the G.P.O or in College Green.

    Will he be singing and dancing or just one very long speech. Entry would need to be free.

    I doubt it would be free, id say it would be some nominal fee like a tener or something.

    I doubt it would cost anything, who would the money be for?

    To pay for Croke Park and the ridiculous amount of security that would have to be enforced. It would also mean you would only getting people who actually want to see him applying for tickets as opposed to people who would just "pop along"
