1994 All Ireland Hurling Final - Offaly v Limerick

I believe Tom Condon is being celebrated ā€¦ and yes, I see what you did there.

Sure we might have another two won by than please god.

come down off your high horse, youā€™ll break your neckā€¦
the thread may or may not have started with those intentionsā€¦
it didnā€™t take long for it to descend into the usual choke and breakdown jibes. No moral high ground for you here bud

I had just started 6th class and our teacher was from Offaly. She didnā€™t have any voice on the Monday (we were surprised she turned up) and fairly sure she stunk of drink until the Thursday. She was a lovely lady.

my memories of that day, I didnā€™t go up, we watched it at home.
When Offaly got the run on us, I remember vividly the sheer fucking anger out of the auld lad, roaring and screaming for someone to start a fight, or run onto the field or do fucking something.
it was like one of those Hitler memeā€™sā€¦ the pure anger, the realization and the devastation.

Shellshock. Pretty much the recurring theme for the next 24 years.

There were very few jibes on this thread until @anon26343222 chimed in and made a fool of himself and changed the discussion from 1994 to today. Sure I was only firing in twee anecdotes about my childhood football boots in the earlier posts

No, I was out in Moyross ā€” she was young enough iā€™d say, about 26/27 - of course that was ancient to usā€¦ She wasnā€™t wearing a bra ā€” she was wearing a round neck jumper so there was no issue bending over and seeing from the front ā€” the issue was it was loose at the bottom and she was leaning over onto another a desk helping with an art thing or something like that and the bottom of the jumper was hanging down and right in my eyeline as I was sat in my seat ā€¦ two lovely white diddies that I can still recall to this day.

Post 17 @Esteban_de_la_Sexfacā€¦ At least I actually attempted to discuss the matchā€¦:rollseyes:

Itā€™s one of the few All Ireland Hurling Finals Iā€™ve missed attending in the last 30 years. Had a family funeral that day, or the removal in the afternoon for an aunt. Was keeping an eye on it on the television at the wake in the house. The cortĆØge was leaving for the church at 5.30 and prayers and all that at 5. Television was turned off a minute or two before the first goal went in. Limerick were 6 up and didnā€™t give it a seconds thought after that as it was a done deal. Pre mobile days so didnā€™t hear until about 10 oā€™clock in the pub after the church that Offaly had won.

Nice to see the thread back on track - albeit on a more sombre note (RIP) - with memories of the day
