US President Barack Obama's heavily armoured Cadillac, nicknamed "The Beast", became stuck on a ramp at the US embassy in Dublin, RTE state radio reported Monday.
The first cars in the presidential motorcade emerged up the ramp from the car park beneath the complex in Ballsbridge and passed through the gates without incident, but The Beast quickly ran into trouble and got beached.
"The Beast was coming along and suddenly there was a loud kind of bang, metal-on-metal, grinding, crunching noise and the car was stuck," an RTE reporter said.
The reporter said that as it drove out, the car appeared to have got its low underbelly caught on a piece of metal sticking up that a gate might lock into.
RTE said Obama and his wife Michelle stayed in the car while security officials and police officers went running over to the stranded vehicle.

Don’t know the school song.
Is it risque?
Pretty sure I’ve heard Ballsbridge in a naughty limerick somewhere.
I can just imagine Grey Poupon going everywhere!

OH, Irish Poems!!!
The president had his nay-sayers
And many short form expose’-ers
Three years he did take,
To correct his mistake.
Then the P-D-F came out in layers.
Oh, I hope he stays in Ireland!!!
Erin, GO Barack!!!
Okay, today’s guilty pleasure for FReepers is:
Wondering how Obama got his head out from under the front seat, and smiling while we did it.
He and the First Battle-Axe could’a lost fillings on this one.
Hilarious.
What a metaphor for this administration...
OK!
You got us.
Now everyone is dieing to hear the rest of it.
Sorry, I don’t have anything further (at least not yet). I was merely hoping to spur some classic freeper creativity.
This never happened with Bush’s wife in the car!
ROTFLMAO

In a speech this afternoon Obama blamed the whole fiasco on Ireland. He stated that if they had returned to 1455 borders prior to his arrival that this could never have happened.

Sorry. Couldn’t resist. I seriously doubt anyone would want to scarf down Obongo’s entourage.
