Are you from Tipperary or Kilkenny? Did you go for a few pints in Quinn's pre or post the drawn All-Ireland Hurling Final? If your answers are in the affirmative then you might want to stop reading now.

One of GAA fans favourite meeting places on Croke Park match days was shut down for two days following Kilkenny and Tipp's memorable encounter in September 7th. We already knew this, but now we know some of the details as to why.

According to the Irish Independent, health inspector Chris Counihan told a court that conditions were the worst he had seen in 17 years of experience.

Stockrooms of the pub were found to have evidence of rat infestation. A dead rat and rat droppings were found in one cellar along with raw sewage which had overflowed from a manhole.

The pub is said to have significantly improved conditions since but that's probably not going to bring much solace to anyone who was there around that first All-Ireland Hurling Final.
