Tipp fans celebrate a score at Croke Park during their second half comeback against Cork

Tom O'Sullivan had written an incredible bit of prose after the historic win over Cork

A celebration of Tipperary's great All Ireland Hurling Championship win.

Rainbow over Tipp

There was a Blue and Gold rainbow over Tipp,

As the team, they made the trip,

To the town where the story did begin.

To Semple Stadium in Thurles,

Where they welcomed home their hurlers,

Liam Cahill's men, who proudly stood their ground.

And with them "Liam MacCarthy",

Their special guest at this great party,

To celebrate the brilliant Blue and Gold.

Their win the stuff of legend,

Each player often mentioned,

As for many years their story will be told.

So with voice and hearts united,

Tipp celebrate and delight in

This mighty team that wear the glorious

Blue and Gold.

Tom O'Sullivan.
