    According to the RTE GAA site:

    http://www.rte.ie/sport/gaa/championship/gaa_fixtures_hurlingchampionship.html

    (on 24 June)

    Antrim are playing against Carlow tomorrow (Saturday) in their second match in the hurling qualifiers AND are playing the Ulster final (their first match in Ulster this year) on Sunday. They've already played 2 matches in the Leinster championship this year.

    WTF?

    They are in both.
    Were left into Leinster along with Galway a few years ago and due to their Superiority, they get a bye to the Ulster final also, because they are still in Ulster. The Ulster tournament is just a title and there is no progression into the next stage of the All Ireland for it.
    Galway would play the Connaught final, except there is no one to play.
