Fr Dan Dargan, the Jesuit who brought the biggest ever crowd to Croke Park, has died in Dublin aged 92.
Fr Dargan brought 115,000 people to Croke Park in 1959 to celebrate the diamond jubilee of the Pioneer Total Abstinence Association of which he was then Central Director.
Three years ago, he cut the ribbon on the Luas Bridge in Dundrum, named in honour of his great grandfather, railway engineer, William Dargan who brought railways to many parts of Ireland.
