WATCH: Edenderry's 1998 Junior Hurling celebrations are still brilliant 25 years on

The GAA is a beautiful thing...

This Edenderry dressing room from 25 years ago in 1998 is just magic with a haze of celebration underway.

It was the summer of 1998, there were sheep in a heap in the Offaly camp, the county team were defying the odds to claim All-Ireland glory and the Edenderry juniors were in singing form.

Edenderry has a small hurling community and winning the Junior hurling county title in 1998 was a big deal to the players, none more so than Greg O'Connor.

O'Connor held the cup aloft in the dressing room as he sang Frank Sinatra's My Way to the delight of his teammates, including Cillian Farrell, a Liam MacCarthy Cup winner with Offaly that same summer.

The scenes are a joy to behold! Scroll back up to watch the video.
