GAA club thank Taylor Swift for continued support and hope to give her jersey

A Limerick GAA club is hoping to thank Taylor Swift in person for her continued support with the pop icon regularly buying Lotto tickets from Glin GAA.

Swift visited Limerick back in 2019 and stayed at the plush Glin Castle but her trip went viral when it was revealed that she had purchased a local lotto ticket from a member of the nearby GAA club.

And the Irish Mirror can exclusively reveal that the Shake It Off singer still regularly plays the club lotto online.

Glin GAA member Hugh Dunne is in charge of the club lotto and told the Irish Mirror that Swift still plays 'the odd time'.

He said: "She'd still play the odd time now. There was an online link going around at the time to buy tickets and she still buys the odd ticket from time to time but she hasn't won yet."

Swift will return to Ireland next year as she brings her Eras Tour to Dublin's Aviva Stadium. And although tickets are expected to sell out in minutes, the American wasn't recognised when she visited one of the local pubs in Glin where she bought her ticket back in 2018.

Dunne adds: "We didn't really know who she was at the time, she was more popular with the younger crew but we thought she must be somebody famous because she had a few security but I don't think she'd need it around here."

And the club are hoping to thank the American singer when she visits Ireland next year.

Dunne continued: "We'd love to give her a jersey or something like that to say thanks. There are plenty of Taylor Swift fans down here who will be hoping to go see her next year."
