Monday night's episode of The Fear featured a father and son duo having their Tipperary GAA jerseys confiscated by Hilary Rose for being "counterfeit". The pair have since been given "official" jerseys following the skit.

Dermot and Conor Prendergast from Clonmel were duped on the day of the All-Ireland Hurling Final by comedy actress Hilary Rose who was kitted out as a 'Counterfeit Enforcement Officer'. In the clip Rose confiscates their jerseys citing them to be counterfeit.

As official sponsors of the Tipp GAA Team, ŠKODA Ireland were keen to get the lads brand new official jerseys and meet and greet with some of the players.

Hilary Rose; The Fear’s Counterfeit Enforcement Officer said of the prank, "We knew GAA supporters would be the best fun and up for a laugh. Tipp fans are so loyal and the team played a great game on the day. Hopefully next year they will be back on the winning podium."
