Magic, Faith, Prayer, Belief, Mayo curse lifted?
Has Magic been reborn as yesterday through the All-Ireland final that Mayo won by three points? Let’s go back in time.
In 1951, when Mayo won the All-Ireland final, the team traveled home through Mayo. The story then goes on and says they encountered a funeral procession; instead of stopping and showing respect, they allegedly kept on going, celebrating. It was rumored that a local priest saw this, and the priest said they would never win another All-Ireland until the entire team of 1951 had passed.
Now I am not a local Mayo man, but it was only later over the years, after the All-Ireland finals had passed them by, that it became the local legend of the Mayo curse. I took time to watch the game myself, and it was nail-biting stuff, end-to-end stuff. And then it blew the whistle, and that was it! Mayo won the title, and a weird numbness came over me. I sat down, and I didn’t get up for ten minutes after the 75 years, even after the final speech given by the captain said the curse is lifted.
Now, my question to my audience
Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in faith?
Do you believe in belief?
And Final question, do you believe in Prayer?
What if, on 26/07/2026, Magic was reborn through the Mayo Curse being lifted through Prayer, belief, and faith? What if all is interlocked together? Are we now in an unfolding interlocking documentary that you’re not if it’s a dream or reality, due to the fact it took 75 years? Whether you believe in any faith, prayer, magic, or belief, what I can tell you right now is that Mayo is the unfolding story of the century, and guess what, you’re also witnessing and living through it. What happens next, I don’t know, but Matt here will be watching! Well done, Mayo, you never gave up and kept coming back. Enjoy your celebrations.
