Killarney

By Sean Moriarty
<h3>A group of traders on the top of High Street are calling on local businesses to follow their example and deck the town in green and gold ahead of tomorrow&#8217;s big match.</h3>
Kerry face Tyrone in the All-Ireland Football Semi-Final at 3.30pm afternoon in Croke Park.
Johnny Maguire of Bric&iacute;n Restaurant, was the first to place green and gold bunting on High Street. He linked his decorations in with O&rsquo;Sullivan&rsquo;s Cycles and Jack C&#8217;s Bar across the street.
A highlight of Bric&iacute;n&rsquo;s display is a painting of Johnny&rsquo;s uncle, Jackie Wade, who was a mascot for Kerry during the 1914 All-Ireland Football final.
&ldquo;It is very disappointing that so few have shown their support. It is up to each individual business and hope others follow us,&rdquo; Johnny told the Killarney Advertiser.
&ldquo;Getting past Tyrone in Croke Park is never easy. This could be the last time to show support but people seem to be blasse about the semi-final.&rdquo;
Publican John C O&rsquo;Shea added: &ldquo;I hope they will be up for over a month.&rdquo;
Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce&nbsp;also erected green and gold bunting on the streets of the town.
President, Niall Kelleher, and Chamber volunteers were&nbsp;out and about at 6am this morning (Friday) to decorate the town before traffic got&nbsp;heavy.
&#8220;The Chamber wishes Peter Keane and the Kerry team every success in their bid to lead the county back into another All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final,&#8221;&nbsp;Niall Kelleher&nbsp;said.

Fly the flag and support the Kerry team
