He boasted how he ‘snuck around’ security to get into the Oasis gig
A die-hard Oasis fan has gone viral after he shared how he snuck into the band’s Croke Park gig without a ticket.
Oasis performed two nights at the northside Dublin venue on Saturday and Sunday.
And while hundreds who were left ticketless outside the stadium enjoyed the concert in their own way, one fan decided to chance his arm by sneaking into Croke Park disguised as bar staff.

The young fan uploaded a reel on TikTok showing how he managed to gain entry into the GAA stadium with a fake wristband, the Irish Mirror reports. He revealed he hid in a toilet for three hours, even boasting how he managed to “sneak past the Guards”.
“This may be the greatest masterplan,” he began. “My fake worker outfit,” he said as he showed off his all-black get-up. I got a worker wristband by queuing for one or then using a fake name.
“I then snuck around the boss and found my way around the stadium to hide in the toilet. Spent three hours here. Trying to find my way to standing.
“Finally found a way, after sneaking past the guards and pretending I work in the front standing bars using the wristband. The masterplan was complete.”
In July, another die-hard fan snuck into one of their gigs by posing as a litter warden. UK fan John Spilsbury marched through the gates of Heaton Park in a hi-vis vest in Manchester.
He said at the time: “Transport planner John, 42, said he had arrived in Manchester ticketless but with a “master plan” after borrowing a yellow hi-vis vest and litter grabber from work.
“I took it with me as a last resort. They’d been lying around in one of the warehouses so I borrowed them for a bit,” said the transport planner from Alfreton, Derbyshire. I was quite lucky.
“It was just unbelievable really. From a security point of view, it was easy to get in and they didn’t check for any tickets.
“I was acting very casual and when I saw the security guys I started picking up litter around them, saying ‘Mind if I grab that mate’ and I walked through.
“I did a half hour shift of picking, filling a bag with beer cans and plates. It was well worth it. I didn’t get paid for the work but I got a free concert.”
