It was brilliant to see such a crowd..I do remember the munster finals of 2013/2014 between limerick and Waterford attracted huge interest,don't know if it was at 12500 though.. CTGAA10 (Limerick) - Posts: 2174 - 17/05/2022 15:39:53 2418177 Link 0 |

It was great to see the place packed and the chants of Uibh Fhaili Uibh Fhaili. Its great to see such a spectacle for an underage game. Some fantastic hurling and scores in it too.

Around 20,000 were in attendance in Ennis for the All Ireland minor football final replay in 2006 Kerry v Roscommon. I was there and Cusack park was packed and we won. Well done to Offaly last night. Great to see a novel Leinster minor hurling final.

I don't think Cullen Park can hold 20,000 and that is before there wasomits placed on pitches due to H and S concerns.

Yes and ye all drove through Loughrea clogging up the town instead of using the bypass to get onto the Gort Road.

I was there too and looked at the aerial pic taken afterwards, yes a big crowd but no way was it 20k.
