    Beer and other concessions were free at Aviva Stadium at the Northwestern-Nebraska game in Dublin, Ireland, because all the credit card machines were down. And because the venue doesn't accept cash and the machines can't connect to Wi-Fi, workers at the game gave away as much as they could.

    How's this for some Irish hospitality?

    The Omaha World-Herald, which was covering the event on-site, wrote that people were given "as many as he or she could carry in a cardboard drink carrier. One man carried seven. Most tried to get four." Fans grabbed cups of fries and hot dogs as well.

    "Nothing is free in Ireland — but this is!' one fan, Stephen Cleary, told the World-Herald.


    One video from the game showed a wild scene of fans trying to acquire as much free stuff as possible:
