EVERYONE knows the story of the Ardfert man who tore up his All-Ireland ticket in order to get €2,000 for his GAA club. But what happened next?
John Dowling and his girlfriend were stopped by a film crew from AIB outside Croke Park on All-Ireland final day and he was offered €2,000 for his club if he ripped the sacred ticket up.
After much soul-searching the Mercy Mounthawk teacher did it, only to be told after the ticket he destroyed was a fake and he would indeed be going to the ball (click here to refresh your memory).
Well AIB have made a follow-up video about John’s beloved club featuring interviews with lots of well-known local faces.
It’s well worth watching…
