IT WAS the mother and father of all GAA parties. Over 750 people turned up to a dinner evening in Cillin Hill to pay tribute to the magnificent hurlers who had brought honour and glory to Kilkenny in 2009.

Feted were the four-in-a-row All-Ireland kings, the Intermediate, U21 and Minor teams that had all catapulted Kilkenny to hurling genius.

Master of ceremonies was Michael Lester of RTE.
