As you do.

Never one to do things by halves.

Last night, Conor McGregor booked out Funderland for his friends and family for the entire night.

From close immediate family to people he works and trains with, Conor brought the amusement park located on Simmonscourt Road, Ballsbridge to life.

Funderland tweeted to explain they were closed for a “private event” but little did we know at the time it was for the Notorious himself.

Conor also shared a variety of pictures from the night, including one of Conor Jr with the caption: “Conor Jr’s first time at funderland! Rolling around in his Bentley tricycle hahahahahaha Boss baby.”

The 29-year-old also shared images of them strolling around including one with a fellow training partner Ciaran. In the post Conor explained the story of Ciaran’s son and how he once visited him alongside other patients when he was sick in hospital. Ciaran was invited to Funderland with his wife and child.

Great to meet this little man tonight. My training partner Ciaran Maher, his son and his wife. Ciaran’s son was a patient in the cardiac department in Our Ladies hospital before. I went in one day on the low a while back and visited all the patients and helped out in my way for the department, and nobody knew about it, I made sure of it, but Ciaran reached out to me out of nowhere thanking me for it and I was like how do you know about that and was blown away as he told me of his son and his journey and that his life was saved by the people in the cardiac department in Our ladies. I done this on the low and it reached right back close to me out of nowhere. Crazy. It’s crazy how you just never know. I invited the little champion, my brother Ciaran and his wife today and it was great to meet the little man, thank you for coming.

He also made sure he had some time to stop for a 99, as one does.

The McGregors all rocked up in separate cars too, never ones to NOT make an entrance.

The only Q in the place.
