The Kerry fan who sacrificed his All-Ireland football final ticket to win money for his club is to feature in a new advert.

AIB made a video of John Dowling tearing up his ticket for the Kerry v Donegal decider on September 21 in exchange for €2,000 for his club Ardfert. But unbeknownst to John, the bank swapped his ticket before filming him rip up what he thought was his valid ticket. It meant he got to go to the game and win money for his club at the same time.

Now AIB have made a follow-up ad in which John talks about what his club means to him and what the money will be spent on.
