Pat McAfee revealed the outrageous number of pints he had in one night ahead of College Gameday in Dublin, Ireland.

On Saturday, McAfee took to the ESPN desk across the pond as Florida State geared up to face Georgia Tech at Aviva Stadium.

During the broadcast, he raved about college football making its way to Ireland and the reception from the Irish fanbase.

'This is a beautiful time, in a wonderful town,' he said. 'Football's back. And 'what's the crack,' they say around here and that means 'what's the story?''

'The story last night for me 30 Guinnesses,' McAfee revealed. 'It is an honor to be in this city and back for another year on this, the greatest show on TV.'

After revealing his pint tally from the evening before, McAfee was asked if he 'split the G' - a tradition when taking the first sip of a Guinness - on all of them. In response, McAfee said he downed all of his drinks.

'Split the G is what people do, but I powered right through those, just made those things disappear,' McAfee claimed. 'And that's what you gotta do when you're in Ireland amongst these great people.'

His revelation came after the ESPN host got drunk in front of a live audience in a special edition of the Pat McAfee at the JR Mahon's pub on Friday.

During the program, he revealed that he took edibles on the flight to the United States to avoid getting checked in the airport.

'When you're flying international, you cannot land into different countries with edibles or weed. AJ as a friend of mine had bought a bunch of edibles,' he said.

'Pilots tell us make sure there is none of that on the plane because when he lands it is going to get checked. AJ you and I both had probably 100mgs on the plane.' 

'It is similar to my trip to London from Indianapolis when I had 13 edibles. Last night was a very similar situation. AJ and I were on about 100mg each.'

Edibles and 30 pints aside, McAfee suited up for game day and rained praises for the Irish crowd while wearing their national colors on his scarf.

'When you talk about passion, they may not be the biggest college football fans yet,' McAfee said. 'They're starting to learn to love it over here.

'But when you talk about being happy that people have come here and experienced the city... Ireland has been fantastic for the last week for a lot of people, the last 24 hours for me, for sure. And this should become an annual tradition for us.'
