All-Ireland celebrations cause damage at newly re-opened Mayo pub 

Glass paneling in Cannon’s Bar in Castlebar was damaged on Monday

Over-exuberant celebrations for the All-Ireland football final resulted in damage to the interior of a newly re-opened Mayo pub.

Cannon’s Bar on Market Square in Castlebar had been closed since 1989 but re-opened earlier this month.

Glass panelling and a decorative bench were damaged in the bar on Monday night with the pub fearing it could hinder their operating hours this week.

“We’re all for celebrations but this stings and could hamper us opening again this week,” said the bar in a post on social media.

The pub was also reaching out to any tradesmen who could help.

"If you're a quality tradesman and would like o help us, get in touch."

A bench in the bar was damaged.

On Sunday, Mayo won the All-Ireland for the first time in 75 years, sparking wild celebrations in Corke Park and across the county.  

Thousands of people packed Castlebar's MacHale Park for the homecoming on Monday as the Mayo players and management brought the Sam Maguire Cup back from Dublin. 

Meanwhile the homecoming celebrations will continune on Tuesday with the Mayo team heading to Ballina Stephenites ground at 4pm.

“Join us as we welcome home our Mayo heroes and celebrate an unforgettable achievement with the greatest trophy in Gaelic football,” said the club in a post on social media.

More than one million people tuned in to watch Sunday's final against Kerry on TV. 

RTÉ’s coverage of the game had an average viewership of 943,500. At its peak, 1.105 million people watched the game on the national broadcaster’s terrestrial platform. 

In total, there were also 566,000 streams on the RTÉ Player.
