The town square of Thurles where the final was held. The streets were closed, the pubs were full, and the people were partying. Chipper vans plied the crowd with fried foods and burgers. This was pretty much the last of the sun for the day.
PK and our guides on the way to the match.
We were in the standing stands: that is to say, no seats.
In the stands above the heads you can see the green of the Limerick fans. Waterford fans were decked out in white and blue.
The Deishe enter the field!
The craic in the crowd.
The teams go on parade around the field before the match.
We were soaked but prepared.
Deishe-boy was just soaked.
Deishe score again!
Deishe win! And the crowd storms the field.
Deishe-boy and Deishe-brother lead the way home. Soaked to the bone but happy.
