| Did anyone see the Irish Festival broadcast on RTE from the Toronto
Skydome on 18 March?
It was broadcast in Canada on TSN (The Sports Network) with Ger Canning
as the commentator. Very exciting to see hurling and Gaelic football
being played in Canada. The Canadian Gaelic Athletic Association
organized the events and two supermarket chains (A & P, and Dominion)
sponsored them.
I'm not sure of the teams (I'll have to view the tape again) but the
hurling match was between Tipperary and the Irish All-stars. Whereas
the football match was between Dublin and (I think) the All-stars.
If anyone is interested, I taped the entire proceedings and I can
provide an NTSC copy on either Beta or VHS. If anyone wants a PAL
version, let me know.
