sophie 0 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 (edited) I was in Cardiff for the Munster game, as that is where I orginally am from. I know this is a soccer forum, but the feeling you get when your team are crowned champions of Europe is unreal. There wer 70,000 of us over fromMunster at the game. It was amazing. I scored on the plane on the way home too:D Edited May 25, 2006 by sophie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc-mag 1 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I'm surprised there was anyone left in Limerick for this given how many were in Cardiff, but the TV showed street fulls of people round that Terry Wogan statue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were aso 30,000 people watching the game on the main street in Limerick. All the pubs stayed open all weekend, the place went mental.
