This is what celebrating your first All-Ireland in 45 years looks like! The Gaelic Grounds in Limerick today was packed with those who weren't lucky enough to be in Croke Park.
While they may not have been able to see their county win in person, it certainly looked like one hell of at atmosphere in their own home of hurling, as the Limerick Leader's Jess Casey captured at the final whistle.

Wonderful scenes. They may having been waiting nearly half a century but I'm sure the decades flew by in comparison to those eight minutes of injury time.
