Love was in the air at the All-Ireland Football Final.
Sunday’s game was a tight one. We were all left on the edge of our seats as Mayo fiercely battled back from their two own goals in the opening half.
As more and more extra time was added we could barely handle all the drama.
In the end, it was a tight draw between Mayo and Dublin with the final score being 2-09 to 15 points. It seems like we will have to wait until October to see who will come out on top.
However, for one Mayo fan, thoughts of the game are lingering in her mind for a totally different reason.
During all that excitement there was a romance brewing in Croke Park.
Marie from Castlebar got in touch with us to tell us all about a lovely fella she met at the match.
Here’s how it happened:
”Myself and two friends from Mayo are living in Dublin and somehow managed to blag ourselves tickets to the big match. We were sitting in the Hogan Stand. During the match we were having the craic with some Dublin fellas who were sitting a few seats over (just the usual match banter). After the match, we all went for a pint in town.”
”I really fancied one of the guys. His name was Declan and I think he works in a bank in the city centre. He had brown curly hair and was around 6ft. Shortly after we finished our drinks my friend had to go meet her boyfriend (even though I was really hitting it off with Declan and didn’t want to leave). Being a good friend I walked her to where her boyfriend was. I didn’t want to go back to the pub in case I seemed too forward but I really regret it now. Can you help me find him?”
So despite all the rivalry, there was still a bit of romance in Croker on Sunday.
If you can help Marie find her Dublin dream guy drop us an email at hello@her.ie. You never know there might be a reunion before the second final on 1 October.
