Has anyone heard of Hurling? I had not before my stay in Dublin but now I am a die-hard Tipperary fan (that's our flag in the picture). Anyway, hurling is a mixture of football (soccer), lacrosse, and hockey. It's fast paced and very intense, with plenty of scoring and contact. We took a risk in buying tickets for 30€ before we really knew what we were getting into, but it turned out to be a semi-final match of the Irish League (GAA) Championships. We happened upon some confident Tipperary fans who persuaded us to route for Tip. It was great to be on the winning side!
