The phrase "only in Ireland" gets thrown around quite a bit these days, but every now and then something comes along that makes you delighted you live on this unique little Ireland.
With the All-Ireland Hurling Final on Sunday, September 6th set to be an absolute cracker between Kilkenny and Galway, tickets are a coveted item for hurling fans all over the country... Apart from Laois apparently.
Abbeyleix GAA are hosting a raffle this Sunday, and the prizes are pretty cool. A €2 ticket could win you a €50 voucher (for what we don't know, it could be anything), or All Ireland hurling final tickets, but who would want to go to Croke Park for the match when you could have the first prize...
A load of turf.

The fact that they secured an extra pair of tickets, which will now be given to 2nd and 3rd place, is even better.
This is brilliant from Abbeyleix GAA, and at 3 tickets for €5, you'd be mad not to get involved.
A bit thanks to the anonymous tipster known as 'Mise' for the heads up.
