The last few weeks have been a turbulent time for Garth Brooks fans and today’s news that all five Croke Park concerts will be cancelled came as a hammer blow to the 400,000 who had bought tickets for the event.
However, even in the toughest of times, the Internet is home to a few heroes who will make us raise a smile.
Here are some of the funniest Internet reactions to the biggest Irish music story since Linda Martin’s cover of Get Lucky.

@breakingnewsie Was it Aikens call? I thought Garth pulled the plug because he felt about as welcome as a fart in a spacesuit? #garthbrooks
