I love how many different emotions you've captured here. People hiding from the rain, others running from it, and one guy (behind the pole) who looks very upset or happy that hes getting rained on.

yeah the happy/upset one was actually drunk and singing football songs, but that rather detracts from the spirit of the photo

Looks like someone really enjoyed the down pour. Stark contrast to the scores of ppl covering up

Nobody notices the rain in that situation

A storm caught me once exactly in the same place in Glasgow! There were thunders and hail and people were running and screaming! That was fun xD Great shot Patrick!

oh yes, sometimes the old folks talk of the terrible winter of 1947, when it rained for three days in a row!

Three whole days! That must've been a real disaster! Can't imagine how they managed to survive it...

I think you just proved your own point - it was taken on Saturday on the way home from the Celtic game. the hailstones on friday were probably worse
