60-year-old hurler in jeans and steel-toe boots: It must be junior B in Cork

Conan Doherty

And here we thought jeans-gate was restricted to Armagh.

Junior B is a glorious place. Some say it is a state of mind.

It’s the Irish version of Hakuna matata. Problem-free.

In Cork, it is no different. A game between Kilshannig and Milford epitomised what junior B hurling is all about. It’s whatever the hell you want it to be.

That’s why Milford were throwing on men in jeans and steel-toe cap boots to play. Because they could.

The game took place in Glantane and it was yet another reason to play junior B.

Whilst we’ve just been crying about people relaxing more and enjoying the GAA again – maybe the jeans are a little too far.

Maybe.
