Yesterday, Fenway Park hosted the 2017 AIG Hurling Classic and Irish Festival. The event featured three 40-minute Hurling matches preceded by a lively Irish festival complete with Irish food, music, and dancing. After two semi-final matches between, Clare defeated Galway in the final match to win this year’s title.
It was nice to shoot a different sport here at Fenway. I was on hand back in 2015 for the first Hurling event, but had fun getting a fresh crack at it. It also helped to have some sunshine and nice light for most of the day. it’s been cold and grey here lately.
