Pat Spillane has explained his emotional moment on the final day of his legendary Sunday Game career in a fascinating interview with Ryan Tubridy on RTE's The Late Late Show.
Spillane was a bundle of energy as always and was extremely engaging in this wide-ranging and enthralling chat. The 66-year-old touched on a number of topics including his relationship with his mother, secrets to a healthy marriage and professed his love for his wife, saying he loves her even more now than when they first met.
The eight time All Ireland winner elaborated on why he got so emotional on the day of the All Ireland final, with factors such as it being his final Sunday Game appearance and Kerry lifting the Sam Maguire Cup contributing to his emotional state. However, it was the absence of his late father and all he had missed that really hit home for Spillane that day.
