The long-standing rivalry between Meath and Louth is reigniting as they prepare to meet again in a much-anticipated match, 15 years after a controversial 2010 final. Tension from past encounters has resurfaced, with excitement building among supporters. To showcase their enthusiasm, a group of friends from Dunboyne have spray-painted a Volkswagen Polo in Meath's colors, drawing significant social media attention. They aim to parade it during the match, demonstrating how the rivalry fuels community spirit and creative expression. The car, initially meant as a lighthearted project, gained a viral following ahead of the game.
It has no tax or insurance so it won't be driven anywhere, but we will probably use a trailer to bring it to a central point in Dunboyne.
"It started as a bit of craic but it's pretty much gone viral now," said Mr White, who works with former Meath manager Seán Boylan.
Friends Callum White, Cathal Melia and Oran Boylan collaborated to paint the green-and-gold Volkswagen Polo ahead of the big game.
The atmosphere is already heating up in both counties before tomorrow's clash.
