It was the 20th of June 1993 when Kilkenny’s Senior Hurlers last came to Netwatch Cullen Park for a clash with Carlow.
Carlow are back in the Leinster Championship this year after Joe McDonagh and Christy Ring Cups over the past few years and opened their campaign with a loss to Galway in Pearse.
Carlow man Eoin Lúc Ó Ceallaigh works for online sports publication the42.ie and shot the following video to mark the unique occasion.
It features our own sports team including Stevie Cahill, Brendan Hennessy, Terence Kelly, Michael Walsh and Pat Coady.
