Video: Marty Morrissey chats with some adoring fans about his eyebrows at the Ploughing Championship and it’s great

We love Marty even more now...

We love Marty even more now…

There is an exclusive list that exists in JOE Towers that contains the names of people who we would like to buy a pint for when we meet them.

Who is on this list you ask? Lets just say that Will Ferrell, Roger Federer and Richie Dunne will never have to put their hands in their pockets around us and neither will one of the nations most beloved broadcasters, Marty Morrissey.

It’s hard to give just one reason why we love Marty so much. It’s probably a mixture of his infectious energy, down to earth charm and passion for GAA which makes him so endearing.

The Mallow man met some of his biggest fans at the Ploughing Championships and what happened next was absolutely brilliant.

RTÉ presenter Colm Flynn managed to find three of Ireland’s biggest Morrissette’s (that’s what we’re calling Marty’s fans) and he asked them what made the broadcaster so special.

Their answers are interesting to say the least but the moment when they meet Marty is class.

Take a look.
