How a Small Donegal GAA Club’s Kit Ended Up on the Pages of Rolling Stone Magazine

Weekend Breakfast with Alison Curtis

Show Notes

You won’t believe this local legend! A Donegal GAA jersey and shorts from the tiny club Naomh Conaill have gone global after they appeared in Rolling Stone magazine, worn by none other than Gracie Abrams. The story started when a local, known online as Donegal Daddy, gifted the kit to actor Paul Mescal during filming in Donegal. Years later, the same kit has popped up on Gracie, leaving the club and locals absolutely buzzing with pride and a great story to tell.
