Wexford's first All-Ireland Hurling title came in 1910, when the Yellowbellies bet Limerick by a fine scoreline of 7-0 to 6-2 in Jones's Road. Jones's Road would be renamed Croke Park just 3 years later.

You wouldn't want to catch a belt off those hurls!

Great to see a number of familiar hurling names in the lineup.

Wexford's first ever All-Ireland win came in June, 1893 when the Selskar Young Irelands footballers, representing Wexford, bet Cork, represented by Dromtariffe (in those days the county was represented by the previous years' county champions), by a score of 1-1 to 0-1 in Phoenix Park.
The match was interrupted by a huge brawl early in the second half, which resulted in a number of injuries on both sides.
When the fighting calmed down, the referee attempted to restart the game, replacing the injured men with substitutes. However, Cork refused to play on, thus crowning Wexford All-Ireland Champions!

Note the bullet hole in the breast of the c**k - I wonder who the sharpshooter was?!
Ned Earle, the Sacristen of St.Aidan´s at the time, gives an idea of the size of the weatherbane itself.
