It’s what it’s all about kid, where your from, family, friends, we really do have something specialI brought my buddy and his Chicagoan father in law to his first hurling match vs Imokilly, a fella who played University ball in front of 30000 people back in his days, beast of a man. Stood up and high fived when we buried a youngfella with a shoulder over the sideline which led to our comeback goal. He couldn't get over the skill levels in general.
My head was in my hands giving out about our keeper Connolly and he said don't worry it's the fellas that don't play well in normal time. I wasn't having it. Of course it comes to pennos and he saves 3. The Yank in in the pub after: 'Ive never seen the Rockies lose!'
Unbelievable stuff. He was in awe over the community and how they don't have this club stuff in the states. We take what we have in the GAA for granted, thank gawd we're not commercialized like the rest of the word. Hurling Abu, Rockies abú, Corcaigh abú.
Ps the yank is gone home I hope? I’d hate to see his streak broken
