Dublin Students Had Some Gas Reactions After Race Day Cancelled At Short Notice

admin

Students in Dublin were left devastated today as the infamous Student Race Day in Leopardstown was cancelled due to weather conditions.

The Spin 103.8 Student Race Day is reportedly one of the most highly anticipated days in the social calendar for Irish students, however Leopardstown Racecourse cancelled today’s event due to heavy rainfall last night.

Leopardstown have said the conditions are too dangerous to allow the day to go ahead, and have confirmed that the event will be rescheduled.

Luckily, being the good humoured bunch that they are, the students had some pretty gas reactions to the news.

Students are far from happy with the news of the cancellation…

Some students had already started their journey to the booze up, and some had put in the hours getting the glad-rags on.

A lot of the disappointed attendees are keeping the spirits high, and planning to make alternative plans. The after party events that were due to take place tonight in Dublin City Centre are still due to take place.
