If loving puns is wrong, we don't want to be right.

Puns are great (when done correctly!) and we love them and anybody who doesn't can't be our friend. To that end, two hotels in Galway have managed to get themselves into a horse-based pun-off on Twitter off the back of the impending Galway Races, and it has completely made our day. It all started off innocently enough, with the Galway Bay Hotel tweeting out the following reminder that the Galway Races are starting in less than a week's time: https://twitter.com/GalwayBayHotel/status/1021689069309489152 Not missing a beat, just eight minutes later, the Connacht Hotel had replied with the first of the equine punnage: https://twitter.com/ConnachtHotel/status/1021691175433134080 And that was it, they were off, and they continued for quite some time, and we couldn't be happier about it: https://twitter.com/ConnachtHotel/status/1021694778302455808 https://twitter.com/GalwayBayHotel/status/1021696038783143937 https://twitter.com/ConnachtHotel/status/1021697538016071680 https://twitter.com/GalwayBayHotel/status/1021701168085516288 https://twitter.com/ConnachtHotel/status/1021703455763845120 https://twitter.com/GalwayBayHotel/status/1021707223339286529 https://twitter.com/GalwayBayHotel/status/1021720341377417216 https://twitter.com/ConnachtHotel/status/1021729095221174272 At the time of writing, they were still tweeting back and forth, so who knows how much longer and in what amazing directions they'll both take this. Regardless, we are 100% here for this.
