VIDEO: Marty Morrissey took on the Crossbar Challenge with three hurling All Stars and something magical happened

There is new a Crossbar Challenge king, his name is Marty Morrissey

JOE

Marty Midas Morrissey.

Men want to be him, women want to be with him and that’s only going to ramp up after Marty’s triumphant trip to Passage East, Waterford to take on the Crossbar Challenge.

Marty was joined in the challenge by his The Marty Squad on RTÉ Radio One co-hosts, Paddy McKenna(JOE Editor, shocking effort) and Brenda Donohoe, as well as three Waterford All Stars – Eoin Kelly, Paul Flynn and Noel Connors.

They all gave it their best shot, but in the end there was only room for one crossbar kingpin.

Let’s just say his name is Marty M…. wait, wait, too obvious…. M. Morrissey.

There’s already been excellent examples from Clare and this brilliant trick-shot crossbar challenge but you can now stick a fork in the Crossbar Challenge for 2015, it’s done.
