When Greencastle won the All-Ireland in 2006.
When Sperrin Og won the All-Ireland in 2011.

Best atmopshere, not best moments!

Small crowd, but electric atmosphere.
Thunder and lightening?

While it wasshocking on the result front I don't think you could beat the atmosphere of the Spain game in the euros. The singing at the end of that game was unbelievable and will stick with me as long as I live. It was a proud to be Irish moment.

From a neutral perspective the 2005 AIHSF between Cork and Clare was the best atmosphere I witnessed at CP. The Cork crowd made some noise as they came back as had the Clare fans while they were on top. Brilliant brilliant game even if I hoped the result had gone the other way.

Thought the Dublin v Armagh 2002 game had a cracking atmosphere even though I can't comment on it unbiasedly. At times it seemed to me that there was electricity cracking through the air that afternoon.
