The Curse is Lifted: What's Next for Mayo? Mayo has finally broken free from the 75 year curse of defeat in the All Ireland football final.
Last Sunday's three point victory over Kerry at Croke Park was a thrilling end to a long saga, with fans and players alike basking in the glory of their long awaited title.
The story behind the curse is an intriguing one. According to legend, a priest placed a curse on the team after they failed to stop for a funeral procession on their way back from their last win in 1951.
