Speaking to BBC Northern Ireland, Paul called the day “one of the most special in the calendar,” adding that he and his dad were “so lucky to get free tickets.” A former minor and under-21 Kildare GAA player himself, Mescal has deep roots in Irish sport and clearly hasn’t lost the buzz for it.

Though he predicted a Cork win, the actor was simply enjoying the atmosphere. His dad summed it up best: “This is the pinnacle of Irish sport—and you have to be here to feel it.”
