All-Ireland Hurling Final (Again)

Kilkenny and Tipperary played to a classic tie earlier this fall. On Saturday, both teams hit the field again to settle the affair... for good.

The two kept it close in the first half before historic hurling champs Kilkenny began pouring in the points (over the bar- 1 point) and goals (in the net- 3 points). Tipp scored a late goal to bring it close, but were unable to pull even before the final whistle blew and they were on the bad side of the scoreline.

Twitter again lit up with action from around Ireland and around the world, let's take a look at some of my favorites!

Also in GAA action this weekend, the Cork Ladies Gaelic Football team overcame a late deficit to defeat Dublin in Croke Park on Sunday. Congrats to all the men's and women's GAA champions this year.

Winners 4eva! RT @natural20: Cork win by a point after Dublin... seemed to fall apart for a long part of the second half :( #AllIrelandFinal
