    With the Galway bandwagon in full flow, expect there to be a shortage of tickets

    However, there are always a few floating about.

    Hurling final tickets are never a major issue. Have never failed to get a ticket over the years(decades even) and have attended approx 30 finals since the 70s. There will be plenty available on Sunday morning if you haven't filled your quota by then.

    Yep. Obviously not necessarily beside the presentation in the Hogan stand but some decent Cusacks are floating around. Hill tickets will be easy to get on the day.

    Where exactly would you always see people selling tickets?

    Got my ticket on Friday which is a day earlier than usual, so I'd expect this would be a complete sell out

    Outside Gills, by the ticket office, outside that dodgy bar when you're heading towards the Cusack are 3 hotspots from my experience.

    Float around the hotels on O'Connell St from 10am onwards with your eyes open and ear to the ground. If you don't get sorted there and match time is getting closer float around any of the crowded bars on the way to Croker.
    I'd be amazed if you didn't come across genuine guys trying to off load. As a last resort there are always the touts, but I never had to resort to them over the years.
    This is a hurling AI with KK one of the participants and their relatively small population - tickets will be available.

    The trick is to be as vocal as a tout, there's a reason they ask has anyone tickets since most sellers are a bit quiet shifting them.
