CSO Stats Paint Stark Price Difference Since Offaly's 1994 All Ireland Win

Tickets for this year's All Ireland final are nearly five times more expensive.

The price of a ticket to the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship Final has almost quadrupled in the last 30 years, according to CSO figures.

A much sought-after ticket for a seat in Croke Park - to watch Clare and Cork battle it out this weekend - will set you back €100.

Back in 1994, a ticket to see Offaly take on Limerick cost £9 - or the equivalent of €21.60.

Offaly won the 'Five Minute Final', in one of the sport's great comebacks.

The Faithful County scored 2-5 in the final five minutes to defeat Limerick on scoreline of 3-16 to 2-13 and claim their third All-Ireland title.
