People love Tipperary’s Bubbles O’Dwyer as he drops the f-bomb on live TV

He REALLY went for it!

It looks like there won’t a person sleeping in Tipperary tonight.

Today saw Tipperary and Kilkenny meet in Croke Park to compete for the Liam McCarthy cup.

The hotly anticipated hurling match saw thousands flock to Croke Park to support their favourite side compete, while many took it easy, lay on the couch and just watched the game from home.

Kilkenny and Tipperary are teams that have a long history as enemies, facing each other many times before which guaranteed that today would be certainly a close call. In the end though, to many people’s delight, Tipperary snagged the title.

The Tipperary fans were out in full force, with one man’s incredible knitted jumper hitting headlines by itself.

After the match, which was a joy from start to finish if I may so myself, Killenaule native Bubbles gave a stellar interview to a reporter.

Eyes brimming with tears of joy, Bubbles was overjoyed at the win, declaring

“2014 is forgotten about, we’re champions of 2016!”

Before dropping what can be commonly known as the f-bomb. Sure look, if you’re not going to curse on live TV the day that you win an All-Ireland final, when would you curse at all?

People took to Twitter to voice their shock at the player cursing on air.
