That's the Cavan Society's Tom Farrelly, right, with Tyrone's Joe Trainor.
The band was playing “Pretty Little Girl from Omagh,” and the dancers were eating it up as the Tyrone Society celebrated its 100th anniversary in a big bash Saturday night at the Philadelphia Irish Center.
The ballroom has never looked prettier, and it’s probably never been so crowded. Kudos to all the folks who brought it all off and made it look easy.
There was lots to celebrate, although bragging rights over the county’s ownership of the Sam Maguire Cup (and the cup was there!) seemed to figure prominently. Tyrone Irish football captain Brian Dooher was a guest of honor.
We were there, of course, and have the photos and video to prove it.
