Robbie Henshaw wows Mayo pub with accordion tunes
Irish and Leinster rugby star Robbie Henshaw has shown he is a man of many talents after he broke out the button accordion in a pub over the weekend.
The rugby international was dressed in a Fred Flinstone-inspired costume when he popped into Dohertys Bar, Mulranny in Westport.
Due to the costume, which some of his peers were also wearing, it is thought he was at a Stag Do in the Mayo town. Irish and Leinster rugby star Robbie Henshaw has shown he is a man of many talents after he broke out the button accordion in a pub over the weekend. Pic: TikTok
The 32-year-old was videoed sitting at the bar, with a pint of Guinness behind him, as he played a tune on the instrument.
The Athlone man was accompanied by what sounded like a tin whistle before another person began singing along.
Dohertys Bar, who were hosting the stag do, took to social media to share a clip of the brilliant tune. @dohertysbarmulranny We were thrilled to welcome Irish Rugby international and Leinster star Robbie Henshaw today — and who better to treat us to a few tunes on the box! #music #irishrugby #robbiehenshaw #ireland #mulranny #rugby ♬ original sound – Dohertysbarmulranny
'We were thrilled to welcome Irish Rugby international and Leinster star Robbie Henshaw today — and who better to treat us to a few tunes on the box!' they wrote alongside the minute-long video.
Social media users took to the comments full of praise regarding Robbie's musical capabilities.
One shared: 'Robbie's dad plays in Killeen's pub and restaurant in Shannonbridge, Co Offaly. The craic is always sensational.' The Athlone man was accompanied by what sounded like a tin whistle before another person began singing along. Pic: TikTok
Another praised: 'Talented man.'
A third wondered: 'So… um… none of us are questioning why they're in Fred Flinstones? Ok so…'
It is unknown who's stag Robbie was on, however it certainly wasn't his own as he celebrated his one year anniversary to wife Sophie Marren earlier in the year.
The couple tied the knot at the five-star Cashel Palace Hotel in Tipperary on March 21, 2024, with Sophie taking to social media this year to share how they were marking their one-year anniversary.
Heading back to where they first became husband and wife, Sophie shared a snap showing two cocktails sitting on the bar alongside the caption 'back to our happy place.'
Just a month after the monumental occasion, Sophie took to TikTok to give fans a glimpse behind the scenes at their big day.
