After causing a splash on Friday’s the Late Late show to discuss the 1916 commemorations, Blindboy Boatclub has been given odds to become the next Irish president.
The Rubberbandits star won over viewers with many taking to social media to call for him to become Ireland’s next president.
Listening to the comedians fans calls, Boylesports have now give the RTE star odds at 40/1.
“Blindboy certainly made an impression on the Late Late Show on Friday night with the public quick to react on social media wanting the Rubberbandits member as a future president of Ireland,” said Liam Glynn of Boylesports.

“Despite currently been a longshot at 40/1, if the public continue to get behind the Limerick native we could see his odds shorten up and wouldn’t it be some sight to see Blindboy’s Horse Outside Áras an Uachtaráin.”
However, the Limerick native will have to face of competition from favourite Mairead McGuinness at 11/2 and RTE presenter, Miriam O’Callaghan at 6/1.
While longshots for the role include former Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern at 100/1 and Dana Rosemary Scallon who has run as a candidate on two previous occasions at 66/1.
