It's Unofficial Rag Week down in Galway this week. You might remember certain scenes from the Eyre Square Supermacs, most of which surfaced the day after so-called 'Donegal Tuesday', one of the heaviest nights of one of the heaviest weeks of the year.
Well' it's here again today, and the craic has already started at ground zero: the Hole in Wall on Eglinton Street.

The green and yellow jersey is clearly a golden ticket for the day's festivities. We assume Jimmy's Winning Matches will be getting an airing or two.

Donegal Tuesday is obviously not just a day but a movement. Here's some pre-JWM footage from the Hole in the Wall last year.
Probably the best day in college calendar #donegaltuesday #sessionstarting
