Muck of the Irish

Posted in: Bizzare Stories — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:49 pm

Two Irishmen have started selling dirt to the US.
Alan Jenkins, 65, from Lisburn and Tipperary scientist Pat Burke, 27, say the demand for authentic Irish dirt is "phenomenal".
To date, the business has sold more than $1 million of Irish soil to the US.
Pat says he has patented a way of processing the soil to allow it to pass US import regulations. It is disease and insect free.
One New York businessman placed a $100,000 order so he can be buried in Irish soil.
For $15, people can buy 0.75lb bags of "official Irish dirt".
