Just recently I spotted two examples of GAA jerseys appearing on TV in places I wouldn't have expected - first watching the Golf Masters on Sunday evening someone in the crowd was wearing a Kerry jersey, then last night I was watching Big Body Squad on C5 and at the beginning they were showing obese people on the high street and someone was wearing an Armagh jersey... Did anyone else notice? and do you have other examples?

I was thinking about this after reading the US Open thread and how some "young people" define their nationality as Northern Irish.  I don't consider myself young but I am happy to identify myself as being Northern Irish.  I have a healthy dislike of both British nationality (as manifested by Loyalist/Unionists in NI) and Irish nationality (as manifested by people in the ROI who left their fellow nationalists to suffer in NI and who totally sold out to consumer culture from the early 1990s).
