In a recent Instagram post, Conor McGregor shared highlights from his visit to St. James' Park. The Irishman enjoyed the Newcastle United vs. Arsenal soccer match live from the stands of the "legendary" stadium.
McGregor has a history of appearing in various sporting events. His appearance at the Ngannou vs. Joshua boxing event sparked a lot of headlines as he behaved wildly while sitting beside a calm and composed Cristiano Ronaldo.
However, this time, McGregor made his way into a match of Ronaldo's sport. The snaps shared by 'The Notorious' showcased that he spent some gala time at St. James' Park. The caption to his Instagram post read:
"A great day with friends at the @nufc vs @arsenal game at the legendary football stadium that is St. James Park! Iconic football grounds! Then on to @harrysbarnewcastle for @forgedirishstout and @properwhiskey! What a day! Thank you to the @nu_foundation for my invitation, it was great to hear the work you do for disadvantaged children in your area and around the country, I will be very happy to help! Let’s go Toon Army!"

Conor McGregor gets trolled for visiting St. James Park
Most of Conor McGregor's snaps showcased the Newcastle United gallery before him. He visited the match as an Arsenal supporter, but his side couldn't enjoy having the last laugh as they lost the match 1-0.
Moreover, the Newcastle United authorities also decided to troll the Dublin native due to his Arsenal allegiance. The caption to an Instagram post from their account read:
"How it started vs how it's going... Hope you enjoyed your trip to St. James' Park, @thenotoriousmma"
Looking at McGregor's competitive nature, it won't be surprising if he fires a diss at Newcastle United if Arsenal manage to defeat them in their next meeting.
