My Armagh jersey from 2002!
We where drinking the day after the final in Dublin with a few Kerry lads, they wanted to swap jerseys when a friend of mine stopped me saying “this is the jersey you wore the day Armagh won the All Ireland think of all the memories it will bring you in years to come” He was dead right

Match programme from All Ireland semi final replay against Roscommon 1977.
Was in Cusack Stand-the early game was a Dublin Hurling Club Championship match and during it my Dad pointed out to me the Armagh team who were standing a few seats away from me. They must have come into the stand to take in the sight and surroundings. I stood there gaping with eyes popping out of my head. Denis Stevenson obviously noticed this awestruck kid and came over and asked if I wanted my programme signed. He passed it around the team and they all signed. I remember being struck at how nervous big Tom McCreesh seemed to be, sitting almost biting his nails. Joe Kernan came across as very focused-he signed but just stared straight ahead out at the field. Like-wise Paddy Mo was getting into game mode. Colm McKinstry seemed very chilled. It was magical and that programme is still in my Fathers house. Always appreciate the kind gesture of Denis Stevenson of taking the time to do that

Pretty sure I've still got the armagh flag from the early 90s the one with armagh written on it and with a wooden stick which I'm sure is broken after hitting thems with it
