WHOO-HOO! It’s back to Croker we go for this Sunday’s quarter-final with Galway. There’s nothing like match day in headquarters for the excitement and atmosphere. TraleeToday.ie will be there to capture the atmosphere with photos of Kerry fans enjoying the fun before the match in the capital. While most Kerry fans […]

THE Munster Final is a glorious occasion for fans of Kerry and Cork fans and – let’s not be coy here – there’s a lot of socialising and carousing to be done before and after the game. So if you’re heading over to Killarney tonight or tomorrow, you could do […]

MANY of you will probably recognise this problem. People have become obsessed with those fidget spinner yokes and video-blogging funny guy, Tadhg Fleming from Ballymac has captured how difficult life can be when you’re a ‘spinaholic’. Take it away Tadhg…

ANYONE who’s familiar with the classic movie, ‘The Shawshank Redemption’, might like this. Impersonator Aidan Tierney is obviously a big fan of Colm Cooper as he mimics Morgan Freeman’s character, Red’s dialogue from the famous prison flick for this tribute to the footballing genius. Uploaded around midnight last night, it’s already received […]

THIS is very good indeed. Remember when the guys at IT Tralee did Pulp Fiction Kerry Schtyle a few years back? Well more students from the college have given Star Wars the Kerry accent treatment in this new video. It was recorded, edited and mixed by third year Music Technology BA group […]

We saw an old photo of Horan’s Hotel from the 1980s on Facebook posted by Seamus ‘Mogs’ O’Mahony earlier in the week and it stirred up some memories of the glory days of the famous nightspot. Here’s what some of you may remember about the venue from the mid-80s to the early 90s… […]

IT had to be said Shane. We all say ‘mom’ around these parts when referring to our dear mothers, but some accuse us as being corrupted  by American TV shows. Step forward then Shane Clifford of ‘Shanes Brilliant Page’ fame. The Tralee man has had enough vilification and explains (below) – in his […]

THAT Friday feeling is here and the people at Baily’s Corner certainly have it judging by the witty sign they have at the bar today. It’s a message for parents who are somewhat free and easy with supervision in their establishment. That’ll keep the kids close-by during a family’s visit to the Castle Street […]

WE owe him one! Renowned purveyor of Facebook comedy clips, Tadhg Fleming from Ballymac, has come up with a new video showing how Thierry Henry might have looked watching Ireland march on last night. Obviously taken from Henry’s famous reaction onscreen to the news Brendan Rodgers was sacked by Liverpool last […]

PEOPLE are really liking Tadhg Fleming’s latest video on his Facebook page. Nobody likes lawn-cutting season and the Ballymac-based comedy video maker decided to dress the part when asked by his dad to do the task. The NWA-soundtracked video has already got over 100,000 views on his Facebook page. See what […]

SO Matt LeBlanc and Chris Evans are in Kerry this weekend and a lot of people are getting excited. The Top Gear presenters are on the way to Dingle later, probably via Killarney. But if they decided to pass through Tralee on the way, we’re thinking Matt LeBlanc might be channelling his ‘inner Joey’ and get peckish […]

AH shtop! The Rossies have been busy this week geeing themselves up for this week in anticipation of their Allianz National League semi-final against Kerry in Croke Park on Sunday. While some are unbelievably passionate about their team, like this guy… Paddy Joe BurkeWe can’t get enough of Paddy Joe […]

UTTERLY terrifying. They’ve certainly got a sense of humour on the ‘Tralee Buy Sell Swap’ secret group page. Someone put up a post of a “cute doll” for sale for €1,000 and it’s scaring the bejaysus out of the members in the secret group of over 10,000. There’s a brilliant, witty […]

APPARENTLY, Fianna Fáil candidate Norma Moriarty is getting support from unexpected quarters, if this video below is to believed. Uploaded by south Kerry based comedian, Bernard Casey, the clip features audio messages left on Norma’s phone from Weeshie Fogarty, Enda Kenny, Joan Bruton, Sir David Attenborough, Ger Loughnane and, (even […]

NONE of this craic on Sunday now young man! The Allianz League issued a Dubsmash challenge to some footballers recently and Kerry’s David Moran looked happy to impart his impeccable lip-syncing skills to Drake’s ‘Hotline Bling’. For the few of you who don’t know what Dubsmash is, it’s a video messaging app where users can […]

HERE’S a funny one! It was a long time coming, but Betty O’Shea from the Spa, finally found out how her daughter was getting on on her holidays…eight years later. Breda O’Shea from Ballinorig was in the Canaries back in October 2008, with her daughter Deborah and aunt Katherine, when […]

THIS Facebook post raised a smile when we saw it on a local buy and sell group page. A lot of presents were given out in households this year around town and while some of them were gratefully received, others didn’t get the desired reaction. This person went on ‘Tralee […]

By Guest Editor, Ebenezer McScrooge And so this is Christmas. And what have you done? No, seriously what have you done with your Christmas jumper and big ’12 Pubs of Christmas’ head on ya?! So how well do you know festive behaviour in Tralee? Here’s some conversations we overheard in town […]

OK, ok, we realise this has nothing to do with Tralee but when Sminky Shorts releases a new video for Christmas we had to let you know about it. It’s all over social media at the moment so here’s a couple of reindeers and a little birdy for your enjoyment.

BRILLIANT! After Tralee man, Joe Griffin, shot to fame last week in his GoPro fail video in Las Vegas, he was invited by the Nevada city’s tourism board to film a promo to show the city’s attractions. Well it certainly didn’t take them long to put it together! Having flown […]

THERE’S a video of a guy running with a gate over in Duagh which is going viral at the moment. It was filmed by Bernie Hart from Tralee and it looks like the guy is trying to keep the gate balanced upright while transporting it through the village. It’s been featured […]

A NEW book capturing the unique way of Kerry life through quotes, excerpts from plays, prose, poetry and much more has just been released and it’s a must have for Christmas. Journalist and author, Breda Joy, is the woman behind the ‘The Wit & Wisdom Of Kerry’, which covers sport, politics, sex […]

NOW, we’re not condoning the defacement of signs on public roads, but… Whoever wrote on this sign in Camp is getting across a laid back approach to bringing your car to halt (and they’re no doubt fans of Sminky Shorts), a ‘H’ between the ‘S’ and the ‘T’ would make […]

IT’S getting close. We’re coming into All-Ireland final week now so expect to see changes around the county in the next seven days. Fingernails will be gnawed shorter, animals will get a lick of paint and the mood will be a mixture of euphoria and dread as the days go by. […]

REMEMBER the guy who helped Rory Gallagher sing ‘Jimmy’s Winning Matches’ back in 2012 when Donegal won Sam? Well the good news is he’s switched allegiances to Kerry in the run-up to Sunday’s semi-final. In a YouTube video (below) uploaded by SportsJoe.ie, the Lanzarote resident, who became a sensation for Donegal […]

  TADHG Fleming is well known in Tralee social media circles thanks to the many videos on his facebook page. One of the Tralee man’s most recent clips required a lot more effort though, as in his bid to win €5,000 first prize in a Radio Kerry competition, he travelled the length […]

WELL, you can’t say that you weren’t warned! A photo of a warning sign on a gate near Fenit has been doing the rounds on social media (we saw it on the West End Bar’s Facebook page) after it was spotted earlier this week. You really couldn’t have come up with a […]

Temperatures are set to rise over the next few days, but we have a tendency to over-react when we get a fine spell in April. Here’s a few things you may see in town over the weekend… 1. The sight of a hastily-prepared BBQ With our unpredictable weather, we’re rarely […]

Our Rose Of Tralee, Maria Walsh, used her invitation to the White House on St Patrick’s Day as an opportunity to invite the US President to Tralee to the Festival. What if he took up the offer. Here’s a few suggestions for Mr Obama.. 1. The obvious first port of call… Barack Obama […]

It’s Lent! And Gavin O’Connor has a few alternatives to giving up chocolate and drink over the next 40 days… 1. Bad Drivers, please give up the Island of Geese Roundabout If you’d like to see a live example of Darwin’s ‘survival of fittest’ theory in action, rock on up to […]
