1. Wtf is hurling?

2. Not bad. Spain is third place. A lot of ties in that position, but still

3. TIL Britain won a hurling championship at some point.

   I’ve lived in the UK for a while, I’ve seen some clubs here but I didn’t figure any of them would be particularly competitive.

4. Up Tipp.

5. I was typing out the rules but it would be to long. Found this if interested. They brought in mandatory helmet wearing and other safety features around 2010… before that it was a blood thirsty sport,it still is but it’s much more safe these days.
