From the BBC World Service and Amazing Sport stories, this is The Curse of County Mayo. Is Mayo’s Gaelic football team really cursed? Could their failure to win the GAA’s All-Ireland Championship actually be the result of a 70 year old hex? Irish-American sports reporter Dave McKenna investigates this curious case. Did the team really disrespect a funeral in 1951? And did that cause the mysterious bad luck that’s plagued the team ever since? This is part 1 of 3, with episodes being released here weekly. To hear the full series early, and for more stories of courage, underdogs and legends, search for Amazing Sport Stories wherever you get your podcasts.
