The sold-out sale of Cusack Stand seats has got sports broadcaster Joe Brolly all riled up. GAA management put the €350 seats with a commemorative plaque on sale last Friday and within hours punters and sports enthusiasts had snapped them up, bringing in a tidy sum for officials.
Croke Park took to social media to let the public know that they would be selling commemorative seats due to a €12m revamp of the Stand which will run into next year.
Management said when announcing the sale that a limited number would be available and that they were being sold in pairs and were numbered.
Due to the limited availability, seats the GAA explained, “would be sold on a first come first served basis.” However, outspoken Brolly, who is also a barrister and columnist, took to X, formerly Twitter, saying: "What in the name of f**k?” The GAA did not announce the total number of seats sold.
