'Cheeky' moment at Galway Races leaves viewers in hysterics

Extra.ie​7 hours ago
The Galway Races got a glimpse of a 'full moon' as its Summer Festival concluded over the August Bank Holiday weekend.
One Racing TV viewer was on the ball as he started recording a group of lads horsing around behind the camera at the perfect time.
After a bit of messing, one of the seemingly middle-aged men turned around and pulled down his trousers to reveal his bare backside to the camera. @ronniesquibb Started videoing these boys laughing at the state of them then looked what happened 😂😂. #horseracing #racingtv #horsesoftiktok #horserace #horseraces ♬ original sound – Ronnie Squibb
The viewer recording the moment burst out laughing and remarked: 'What a legend. I can't believe I got that on video.'
He captioned the post on TikTok: 'Started videoing these boys laughing at the state of them then looked what happened .'
Only a day after posting the clip, the user already received over 40,000 likes on TikTok.
Naturally, the comments have been flooded with the classic puns associated with a 'mooning'.
One user wrote: 'There's a crack in ur tv mate', while another added: 'There's a full moon coming.'
Other comments included: 'think u have a 'split' screen TV mate', 'Cracking day out', 'he's only having the crack' and 'what's the crack at the racing'.
The clip has been shared over 20,000 times in just one day. The Galway Races Summer Festival concluded over the weekend.

It wasn't the first occasion of the festival that left people in stitches after RTE's Teresa Mannion shared a hilarious video of a high heel getting caught in a storm drain.
Teresa gave an impromptu interview to the woman, who was trying to pull the heel out of the drain, with her tagging the designers Manolo Blahnik — whose heels fetch prices of around €600.
'A trapped designer heel, recycled hat, former Ladies Day winner turned judge,' Teresa wrote. 'It's all happening at the Galway Races. Winners to be announced later this afternoon.'
Incredibly, this isn't the first time that such designer shoes were discarded in the streets of Galway, as back in 2023 Teresa spoke to security at the festival; who said that they found a pair of Manolo Blahnik stilettos in the bin.
'Security staff at Ballybrit were bemused to find a pair of designer shoes worth 660 euros dumped in a bin!' Teresa tweeted. 'Even a pair of #ManoloBlahniks couldn't sustain a lady at the #GalwayRaces.'
People were left in stitches at the dumping of the shoes – which, according to racecourse security, were left after a woman gave them to her partner, who then put them in the bin as she continued barefoot.
'The boom is back (for a select few only) hope the ladies kept them tbh [to be honest],' one person tweeted, while another joked 'Carrie Bradshaw would never' – a nod to the fact that a blue version of the suede stiletto were made famous by Sarah Jessica Parker's character in Sex and the City.'

Following her stint in the villa, she embarked on a worrying cosmetic surgery journey new love Love Island star goes public with new boyfriend three years after disastrous stay in the villa A LOVE Islander has gone public with her brand new boyfriend - three years on from a disastrous stint in the villa. Blonde stunner Mollie Salmon has been showing off her hunky new man on social media after failing to find love in the eighth series of the show. 4 Forgotten Love Islander Mollie Salmon has found love after the villa Credit: ITV 4 She has debuted her handsome new boyfriend online Credit: Instagram Mollie has continued to keep her Instagram followers updated with the goings-on in her life and has now revealed her new man for the first time. She posted a loved-up selfie of the pair from a recent outing with each other. It is understood to be the first time that she has ever shared a snapshot of her handsome mystery man online. Whilst Mollie did not tag him in the post, 25-year-old Olly Wilson replied to the post with a love heart before Mollie replied the same - seemingly acknowledging their connection. One of her fans commented underneath the photo: "YOU GUYSSSS." As another shared under the former reality TV star's post: "Unbelievable moll." Mollie lasted less than five days during her time as a Casa Amor girl on the show. She failed to find any connections in the villa and was largely mocked online for seemingly going missing and failing to be seen in any scenes on the programme. Following her time in the villa, she embarked on a controversial cosmetic surgery journey. Mollie underwent the dangerous fox-eye procedure in a bid to alter her looks. Awkward moment Love Island's Harrison calls girlfriend Lauren by his EX'S name live on TikTok - hours after coming face to face with her She revealed that the cosmetic procedure involved lifting the eyebrows to target "droopy" eyelids. Her cheeks look noticeably more taut while her eyes appear raised at the ends, changing their shape entirely. On her Instagram account, she revealed she went under the knife at Mono Cosmetic Surgery in Turkey. Despite clearly being excited for her new look, trolls were quick to claim Mollie's surgery choice wouldn't end well. 4 Mollie appeared on the show for just a few days Credit: Eroteme One wrote: "Bug eye surgery." Another remarked: "I'd never in a million years get an eye surgery." But Mollie wasn't going to let the haters win as she posted another clip revealing the final results of her surgery. She penned: "Reading through all my comments saying I've ruined my face with fox eye surgery." Wearing black sunglasses she mimed over the sound: "I had a little cry earlier, and I had a big cry last night, but I'm not crying now and I think for that, I'm doing so well."

I won a lottery prize & quit my job – people say I'm stupid & it's less than some people's wage but I have a good reason

Plus, how she has received cruel trolling following her win CASHING IN I won a lottery prize & quit my job – people say I'm stupid & it's less than some people's wage but I have a good reason A LOTTO winner has revealed she's quit her job, despite raking in £120,000 in total. Olivia Love, who was previously on Universal Credit, scooped £10,000-a-month for a year alongside hubby Kevin last month. 5 Olivia has opened up about winning Set for Life on the lottery Credit: Tiktok/@mrsolivialove 5 In June, Olivia Love, pictured with husband Kevin, won £10,000 a month for a year on Set for Life Credit: ALAN PEEBLES PHOTOGRAPHY The 36-year-old, from Glasgow, has been able to quit her job at a local supermarket, and hire a cleaner and gardener. Before this, the mum-of-four was earning just £800-a-month working in a supermarket's customer service kiosk. She was also on benefits to subsidise her eye-watering £1,800-a-month childcare costs and "dreaded" her council tax bill coming through. Olivia shared how numerous people have questioned why she decided to quit her job after winning just over £100,000 and have told her the decision is 'not wise'. More on lottery winners LOTTA LOTTO LOVE UK's youngest lottery winner finds love after split from boyfriend However, she explained that without getting help from Universal Credits towards childcare, it made sense for her to do it herself and save £1,800. She hit back in a clip, saying: 'Listen, buddy, listen. I gave up my job. Yes, because I earned £800 a month without the Universal Credit element of getting the cost of childcare paid for then I'm working for nothing. 'I still have to pay my childcare costs of £1,800 a month. 'I'm sick and tired of having to explain this to people.' She shared how she hopes to start her own wedding content creation business, instead of just blowing through the money. Olivia added: 'That's using my weddings to change my life, to change my career. That's what I plan to do. I'm not gonna blow through the money and if you'd watched any of my videos you would know this. UK's youngest lottery winner splits with boyfriend and finds new love with gas engineer as they share snaps 'So what's not wise is to comment like this when you're not very well informed.' While some would be hesitant to broadcast the news, Olivia and her hubby Kevin have been speaking out about the life-changing prize in more detail on TikTok. Since going public with her win, Olivia has been giving social media users an inside peek at the life of a lottery winner. 5 Now Olivia has opened up about her winnings Credit: TikTok / @mrsolivialove However, she admitted that she's had some trolling about people - mainly men - who resent her win. In a TikTok clip (@mrsolivialove), she said: "When I won the lottery, I knew it would change my life. But I didn't expect how loud the internet would get. "With the win came judgement, assumptions and a lot of hate. Especially from men who can't stand to see a woman win. "Just for being proud of my life. For spreading hope and positivity. For being proud of what this win does for my children. 5 Olivia has quit her job at a local supermarket and hopes to build her dream career in wedding content creation Credit: ALAN PEEBLES PHOTOGRAPHY LIFE-CHANGING MOMENT Set For Life offers a top prize of £10,000 a month for 30 years when the five main numbers and the Life Ball are matched. Players can also win £10,000 a month for a whole year by matching the five main numbers. Olivia revealed she did six lucky dips at £1.50 each on the app, with one of them bagging the second tier prize of the cash for a year. She's never played her own numbers, explaining: 'I've always had the fear that if you did play your own numbers the one time you didn't play it, that would be the time your numbers came in.' She was shocked when she received an email from The National Lottery team at 12.33am on May 16 June that changed everything for this couple. However, she said it has changed her life for the better, saying: 'I feel like I can be more present now. Enjoy more moments. 'The stress I felt before stopped me enjoying the little things.' With the win came judgement, assumptions and a lot of hate. Especially from men who can't stand to see a woman win Olivia Love Recently, she documented her family's "first holiday as lottery winners" to North Wales with their four kids and Kevin's parents. They hired a stunning four-bedroom 17th century farmhouse for the week and spent just £2,202.06 in total including car rental, food, and accommodation. The winning numbers in the draw were: 03, 27, 42, 45, 46, plus Life Ball 06. Before she won, she had been playing sporadically for four to five months and would play when she had the 'notion to do it.' And despite winning, she still hasn't stopped buying lucky dips 'from time to time.' 5 She recently paid for a £2,200 holiday in Wales for her family Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk DOWNSIDE While buying items like her hubby's car has brought her 'so much joy', there are some downsides to the winnings. Olivia has had people message her to beg for money, with one saying: 'Can I have like £20,000 to pay my debts off?' As a result, the Lottery winner said: "I've got my dms very closed.' Since going public with her win, Olivia has hilariously joked about wiping away fake tears with £20 notes in response to cruel comments from trolls.
