Well, if you’re ever going to make a racket!
Clann na nGael ended their 19-year wait for a Roscommon SFC title on Sunday, beating Pádraig Pearses by the narrowest of margins.
The relief had definitely given way to euphoria by the time they completed the 30-kilometre trip south from Dr Hyde Park to Athlone (we reckon the trip took longer than the 34 minutes predicted by Google Maps).
As captain Johnny Dunning arrived into Johnstown with the cup in hand, the convoy had erupted into a deafening barrage of car horns.
Given it had taken nearly 20 years to add title number 20 the neighbours will surely cut them some slack, or more likely buy them a pint.
