Official Rose of Tralee Thread

I only found out during the week that the hotel hosting the roses has to put them up for free. So the Rose Hotel told them to fuck off out of it and they’ll rent the rooms out for €300 a night instead. They are staying in the meadowlands this year which would be a bit of a step down.

The event itself is on in the IT

Pathetic me-aw of a festival. Add in the puc fair, and that’s 2 black marks in the Kerry notebook!

Makes me laugh every year
You’ll have the screaming Mulallys on Joe Duffy on over the next few days saying how it degrades women etc. etc. Yet not one of them was dragged kicking and screaming to enter it. I haven’t watched it since Moses was left in his basket down at the river and have no intention of watching it now. But if these lasses get something out of it, lave em off

It helps the online “profiles” I suppose it can’t hurt the CV

Daithí is about to go into an ice bath

Get yere money on Texas!

Poor auld GarGar being called out for shifting some girl last night.

Is 2019 Rose of Tralee winner Sinead Flanagan related to Seamus Flanagan? I think someone said at the time that she’s his sister but I don’t think that’s the case.

The Roscommon Rose could be a bolter here.

Had a great night in the dome back around 2015. We picked up free tickets from some auld lad outside after the Rose had been crowned. The Agri-Spec version Queen of The Land was also very good craic.

Has the Kerry Rose been on yet?

I dont really know her personally but would know about 10 of her friends quite well and they are absolutely mental.

Mrs Mac called her out having gone to some tour of the Roses thing in Gorey here when they walked through the town about 2 weeks back

how many of those roses have been deflowered…

They all love singing Travelling Soldier too

The Kerry rose saying it’s great to see a future for Young people having a future in towns like Listowel, I’m not so sure that’s accurate. She spoke well though, you’d know she worked in media.

This lass is apparently 27. I’d say she has the same birth cert source as the Kenyan and Ethiopian runners
