hard to get sailings out to Skellig Michael with the weather the few number of boats that go. Knock isn't much to see lol but what ever floats your boat :D

Wiz will swim to Luke's shrine on Skellig.

As for Knock, who doesn't wanna go to the site of a Marian apparition?

Yes they do, but you have to go outside of Disney World to see them
LOL... Do you even Las Vegas bro???
You're all so full of shit. Since nobody bothered to click the link and instead looked at one photo, here's a couple more.

That's Pride and Prejudice shit. Not freaking Las Vegas. Y'all poors will be slumming it at Air BnB (or home) while I'm in the four star suite with tickets on the 50 but go ahead and rip my taste in accommodations.

I dunno why anyone brought up "Vegas" but there are absolutely estates in the United States that have grounds, etc.

If it was a legit castle -- and they do have hotels like that in Ireland, obviously -- then fine. But you linked a picture of some beds and got rightfully dunked on so deal with it.

Holy hell you all are insufferable. Taking things a bit literally, don't you think? It would be nice to have real friends so I didn't have to put up with your nonsense.

Who's bringing the cardboard rim and ball so we can literally dunk on Wiz all over Dublin?

Hopefully they do a better job with distribution and don't give away too much to Anthony Travel. There was exceptionally high demand for tickets and hotel rooms, but not the "packages."

Unfortunately the entire event is being run by one of John Anthony's companies, so little chance of getting tickets.

Anthony Travel purchased 33,000 tickets for the 2012 game. Used 10,000 on their own packages and disposed of the rest to other operarors via the secondary market - c. $250 per ticket.

Note that the announcement of this game was rushed to avoid new secondary ticket legislation recently announced by the Irish Government.

There is no chance that Croke Park could be used at that time of year because the All Ireland hurling an Gaelic football finals are that time of year.

GAA has moved the finals earlier so they no longer clash with NCAA opening week.

I believe the GAA were very interested in hosting the game.

This year the finals were on Aug 19th Sept 2nd and Sept 9th. Even if it doesn't fall on an exact date they won't use the pitch during this time of year due to chance of damage, markings etc.

Would anybody be interested in paying a premium for 50 yard line seats? I want to do a package but my daughters and possibly parents won't want to go to the game.

Paris? Perhaps. Disneyland? Nah. If I make this game, I figured I'd start a trip with Dublin and the game then go on for my European adventures from there.

Gotcha. First day of kindergarten is August 31 so Dublin will be my last stop.
