Thing of the past?

In addition to the new playing rules which have been introduced to make sure the nation doesn’t have to be subjected to another Dublin/Tyrone final, GAA fans have been hit with a rash of new spectating rules which were passed in the small print of the playing rules. 

In a move to make Ulster GAA fans more civilised like their rugby counterparts, the GAA will trial the following set of rules for the upcoming McKenna Cup competition:

• No more than 6 ham sandwiches in any group of 10 sandwiches stored in the boot of any motor
• No more than 12 sandwiches in total
• No tin foil. Use cling film or sandwich bags.
• Tea must be pre-made. No tea bags within 20 miles of any ground.
• Throwing teabags into the hedge will result in a one-year ban from all games.
• Monkey hats must have fluffy balls on the top
• Crisps must be in a clear bag and must be homemade or one of those fancy hand cut local brands
• Alcohol must be consumed in a wine glass around the boot of a car
• In fact, boots must remain closed. Drink and eat at a portable picnic table.
• Cursing must be followed up with an apology and patting some child on the head.

Tyrone GAA have yet to comment on the new initiatives or how they will be implemented around Healy Park.
