Anyone who has ever been to Galway knows that Supermac’s in Eyre Square is the focal point of the city.
Right in the middle of Eyre Square, the iconic fast food joint is always at the epicentre of the city’s famous RAG week — and will surely be in the middle of celebrations tonight and over the coming week as Galway natives come to terms with their county’s incredible win over Waterford in the All-Ireland Hurling Final, both the night before and morning after.
While it’s still a little early for merry Tribesmen to be pouring into the hallowed establishment, the staff are surely bracing themselves for what’s to come and everyone on Twitter is making the same joke.

Supermac’s first opened in 1978 in Ballinasloe Town, and the company has long been the sponsor emblazoned across the county jersey. Supermac’s has long had a kindred association with Galway, the a company’s social media account shared their own quality footage of the Fanzone in Eyre Square this afternoon.
