A clip from an episode of RTÉ’s Nationwide from 1997 has just gone viral because it features a baby drinking a pint. Seriously.

And so the legend of Pint Baby was born.

Of course, there are rumours about where Pint Baby ended up. Some say he now lives in Kildare, others say that he went on to be a ‘Pintman’ like the great Paddy Losty (famed to put away 30 pints or more in a day).

Here’s how the people of Twitter reacted to Pint Baby…
