- The GAA is a wonderful, beautiful creation of ours, but suffice to say if you're not Irish, you probably don't know what they are. You wouldn't know that all GAA players are amateur, and to play county makes you the pride of your parish, or that you'll have your father screaming after you to "run you fat f**k". Well let Tommy explain to you just what the GAA really is. It's not just "irish football".

I love Cork so much that if I caught one of their hurlers in bed with my missus, I'd tiptoe downstairs and make him a cup of tea
- Real GAA Commentary
My name's Tiernan, my ma lives in Cork and I'm half Peruvian so this segment was all the better for me 😂 also my mom has actually photographed you at a charity comedy show ❤️
better go make the tea then.🤭
@@hyperrat12 I'm Irish live in El Peru what part your family from bro ?
@@JR-xo5jp Lima like most, kinda boring 😅
@@hyperrat12 Lima is amazing one of my favourite cities ...me imagino hablas Espanol hermano ? Bueno dios lo bendiga viva El Peru,🇵🇪long live the Republic 🇮🇪
‘ if you go to a soccer match they don’t give a fuck about ya…If you go to a GAA match they have to give a fuck about ya ‘
Has anyone ever summed up so succinctly why GAA is so important to us all ? You keep her lit Tommy…keep her lit !
"Like 30 chimps playing golf with the one ball!" Christ, thats a great line!!
We play Hurling in New Jersey, wherever you are look up your nearest GAA and give it a go
I love hurling, don't quite get it, but I love it! Every now and then catch the Gaelic Games.
I promise you watch the whole championship. Fastest and best game on earth to watch I promise you 👍
Was a game ancient warriors played before war to get them prepared to the roughness of battle.
@@darraghsheehan9467 Ya its such an incredible game. Every single year without fail its fantastic. Honestly don't understand why anyone would watch football over it.
Gay-lick
It is better than the English premiership that for sure cause for one the player aren't pussies who spend more time on the floor than they do running and the pace they go at is something that the soccer player will never go at
Love it. Used to play shinty and was in a couple of youth teams that went over to play against the hurling guys. Managed to get to the Leinster hurling final at Croke park. Great craic.
I used to play shinty, and I can tell you , that even the girls got a bit violent with each other!!
@@heathermcdougall8023 Quite. One evening we put down our shinty sticks and picked up the hurleys for a game of camogie against the girls. They were even more physical than the guys!
As an American all I can say is What?
Idir shinty, iománaíocht agus an teanga Ghaelach atá imeallaithe, shílfeá gurbh iad an náisiúin céanna iad Éireann agus Garbhchríocha na hAlban in amanna! (Nílim ag maíomh gurbh ea, ach tá cosúlachtaí ann!)
@@cigh7445 Uill ghluas na daoine cheiltach mun cuairt air an Roinn Eorpa, 's mar sin tha ceangal eadar Eireannach, Gaidhlig, Cuimreach, Breton, Mannanach 's Cornach.
I'd love to see Jim Carrey on the Tommy Tiernan show. I've heard Tommy talk about how being unprepared for his performances and just going with whatever Shite comes oush of his moush and prays the audience gets it. Because of this kind of naturalness to his performance, I think that himself and Jim would make a very interesting conversation.
Did you see Jim on norm mcdonald
This is one of the better suggestions for fans of both inspiring & succinctly grounded men (who don't feel compelled to be 'on comedy mode' every time in public) to chat! Please do this!! Another engaging exchange would be Graham Norton & Steve Harvey
Don't be mislead by the media,Carey is full on Hollywood!(even if 'he doth protest to much')
I love this man....he is just hilarious 😂
The Irish are such eloquent people, I can’t get enough of this.
feck off (that's as eloquent as I get)@msmissy6888
Love you Tommy!!!! You are brilliant!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
as a foley, this is how it goes
'Oim his fahda - oah coase I knoow whaere hee lives!' 😂
One of the best comedians on the scene. So angry/So lovely. 😡😍
Hes weak. 😔
Im glad that came through my feed.
Any chance of you coming to Frankfurt for a show Tommy?
I'm thankful for my Irish heritage - Father from Carlow and Mother from Coatbridge, Scotland (33rd County of Ireland) 🇮🇪
No one cares.
@@Ethan-xf4or did that make you feel good? 🙄
Coatbridge!?!? That is unionist heartlands down there.
@@razormouth3414 just a typical yank. My grandmothers cousins sister was Irish bla bla bla lol
@@Ethan-xf4or FR I know what you mean I get this alot. "My mums sisters best friends dogs owner is Irish so that makes us related!"
The slating of the Premier League wannabee bar-stoolers in this clip was genius.
'I'm his father' got me
Tommy Tiernan is a genius.
one love...in austria missing home...time to meet for them to the fucking bager i thinks....
there will be a few changes around here......
Fight, bite, kick etc etc.
The best!!!!!!
God bless the Irish!
Surprised a heckler didnt yell out "HURLEY TOMMY! HURLEY!"
Tommy the Funny Roy Keane.
Is this like Shinty? Scot here..
Yes very similar 😊
Hahaha we are always playing Georgia
as a result, do you always have georgia on your mind ? ;)
So good,,,
And then Teignmouth in Devon? 😉
So funny 🤣🤣
Tiernan is as funny as a fire in an orphanage on Christmas Day.
He's not that funny
Did someone hurt you feelings princess
Very good, seen Tommy twice in new york he's very funny
I think your genius is lost on some. What harm.
Reminds me of a guy who would go around saying he doesn't believe you offered him a certain amount of money but he came and asked for help from you,then he would announce the day he plans to just give it back to you, they will believe him when he gives you and walking away leaving you like speechless, hahaha, because you still had something to say and he just left, crazy people around for sure but it caught up with him, people avoiding him to a point where he got sick and eventually got a license to not be around, maybe his senses were not getting along like him and the people who found out and avoided him so the heart stopped communication with the body, maybe that's what happened to Jesus
Totally apt , soccer the beautiful game, me hole, and what's with kissing each other when they get a goal.., over priced wankers
Isn't Gaelic Football just aussie rules and soccer blended?
Nah other way round gaa came first
@@pearseduddy7527
AFL is so much more skilfull than Gaelic😉
Why does he put on that accent?
Because that’s his accent, and he goes a bit harder on the accent when he is impersonating people as he tells the story.
@@fermageehamilton1402 I see.
It's rteu
🤣
I R a at play
what would a Donegal man know about hurling?🙄🙄🙄🙄
Pretty much the same as any other Irish person
GAA amateur status is simply a relic of its origin in British society of the late 1800s, all organised British sports were amateur to begin with. Football (soccer) and rugby (league) went professional early-ish on, other games such as athletics and rugby union remained amateur for decades. Trying to make a case for the GAA being special or different because it prefers to see its best players emigrate rather than pay them properly is...dubious.
The Gaa only exists to offer an alternative to British sports in Ireland, to this day Gaa is a nationalist Irish sport and rugby and field hockey are seen as foreign British sports mostly played by protestant settlers /planters
How to be a gaa person.
1, always expect people to have no choice as the gaa wants and has had a monopoly.
2. Always kick out at an opponent who has just scored against you.
3. Fight as much as possible and punch your opponent at every opportunity.
4. make sure your local priest is a member of your gaa club.
5. Swear profusely.
6. Swear allegiance to mick dunne the famous commentator not.
7. Support rascism and discrimination.
8. Support terrorists.
Following the above will put you on the right track to be accepted in this scummy and corrupt organisation. Go raibh maith agat.
I like Tommy but this character of the rambling gypsy isn't his greatest.
Agree. He's quite sad at times.
Hurling is what we called puking
He doesn’t need to swear or be crude to be funny...
Not funny anymore
So affected. His accent is really hammed up.😐
Always thought that. A bit of the Saoirse Ronan's about him. She's a New Yorker...
... who only lived there til she was 3 before swapping it for the bright light(s) of Carlow and then later on Dublin.
@@paulmoneill Mate, she's a Noo Yorker, no nobody with that accent.
I know plenty people who talk like this when there amped up / telling a joke. None of them are from Dun Laohaire incidently.
Have you ever left Dun Laoghaire and heard a real Irish non-Dub person speak?
Obviously he's full of energy and shouting and acting on stage, but his accent is perfectly normal for someone who grew up in the parts of the country he grew up in (as somebody from the very south I'd place him as maybe Midlands or northern Leinster)
He's categorically unfunny.
When a comedian feels it necessary to instruct security to eject hecklers he hasn't got the wit to cope. (witnessed)
He just prances about like a fool using explitives as his crutch.
Woeful. Just not funny. Lowest denominator humour.
On a nirvana video someone should at kurt cobain
You suck
To which he replied
Then why are you here?
I say the same to you friend
@@Cora342 I had the misfortune of attending a T. Tiernan performance interestingly preceeded by his sister who was mildly humourous.
The story about the security is true.
Dylan Moran, an intelligent droll comedian, would reduce a heckler to embarrassment, silence and a laughing stock.
T. Tiernan simply hasn't the wit to do so.
@@pappy9473 so you went to a Tommy show, didn't like it, but you are here on TH-cam watching his video and commenting on your dislike for him lol 😂, what a 🤡 you are 😂😂😂
Free tickets for Vicar Street (there were plenty).
His cousin was the support comedian (keep it in the family) and she was a quite funny.
When he came on a heckler was giving him grief from the back of the crowd. After a short while Tiernan stopped the show to have the heckler removed by security.
There are many Irish comedians who would have demolished the guy with humour and the audience would have relished it.
Zero repect for the Nazi approach.
@@pappy9473 so why are you here commenting about it man?
Man,... this guy juet isnt funny.... litralley relies on his irish accent for EVERY LAUGH... :(
Gaa is actually pretty boring
Soccer is way better to watch
Gaa boring, ah come on. Soccer is boring for 90mins you might not get a score. Hurling one of the fastest most skillfull games in the world and its Irish. Im being biased now.
@@cuchulainn792 I'm irish but I've always found hurling so boring
Half the time u can't see the ball and sports where you hit it over a bar which the goalie can do nothing about suck
@@jakesullivan8339 fair enough. 😐
Have you ever actually sat down and really watched football of hurling? If so I couldn't believe you'd have this take
@@Frank-bv9fs I'm from kerry
I play the bloody sport
GAA has got to be the most pathetic sport Ive ever seen ...Rubbish
