No one said anything about shit, or quality, by the way, little of which has been on show in either game over the past few years. He was talking about tickets.
If Kerry and Mayo played each other in 6 finals in 8 years Iâd say a few might go on general sale
Dont underestimate the Mayo football supporters love of pain.
Why do you lads get so upset about stick hurling having shit crowds? Itâs a minority sport thatâs only taken seriously in a handful of counties that border Tipperary. Itâs obvious that with such a lack of interest in the game nationwide that itâs going to struggle to sell out games.
Fair play to them if they are able to sell out Croke Park for the final. That would be a tremendous achievement considering how little interest the country in general has in this pursuit.

Which part of the playing field can you not see?
At least they donât blast length of the pitch hail Mary balls ad nauseum.
Why are fisty ball enthusiasts so bothered?

Youâre bothered.
I had two of these tickets in 2009. Up the back of the upper Davin. My view was restricted as I couldnât see above the crossbar the far end without crouching down. The big screen was in the way. So to clarify there are seats in crokes park with a restricted view. On the plus side I think the tickets were half price. And we beat those chipp cunts. Up kilkenny
I wouldnât expect you to get it, mate, itâs an Irish thing.
Now, can we get back to talking about hurling please and not the fascination the fisty ball enthusiasts have with ticket allocations.
Hurling is uniquely Irish. Itâs a part of our very fabric. Itâs the fastest field game in the world and most likely the oldest one.
Would you ever miss the auld cockfighting?
Iâve never had to fight with another cock in my life, mate. Usually the lesser stag backs away when he gets a whiff of the more dominant one.
What the fuck?! Cockfighting man, not fucking cock fighting!
I didnât take the picture or name the type of ticket that it is, dude. I just provided the picture that posters were looking for.
However, I would speculate that if you were from Kilkenny or Tipperary and were offered a ticket that was marked âRestricted Viewâ that youâd say âfuck this, Iâll see if thereâs any going in Quinnâs, Gills, The Hill 16 before the matchâ.
+1. Lower Davin where it meets the Hogan/Cusack, you have to get up to see across when play is in the opposite corner. Ended up in them a few years ago, never again.
Looks like the sold out signs are going up for Sunday.
Was at the club last night and only 3 Nally terrace came back of which two were taken today.
Its a fair achievement to sell nearly 80,000 tickets to an event that only a couple of counties play or have an interest in. The game oversells itself based on the audience.
No such problems will arise with the football final but thatâs because its a slower game and easier to follow. Like soccer, the slower easy games have more appeal to the masses.
Simples.
Fuck Tipp.

The Brits love slow games likes cricket and football⌠It suits their need for order. The Irish mind is completely different and thrives in chaos⌠Thatâs why the Irish love hurling and the west Brits love fisty ball.
