Tommy Bowe poses for selfie with Henry Shefflin at Garth Brooks concert

It takes a lot for TV presenters to get starstruck, but that's exactly what happened at Croke Park this weekend..

On Sunday, Ireland AM's Tommy Bowe and Muireann O'Connell were at Croker to witness the third concert of American singer Garth Brooks in the capital.

The two Virgin Media stars even shared a lovely selfie on Instagram as the former grand slam winning rugby player for Ireland asked Ireland AM fans to “forgive them”.

Tommy Bowe wrote on Instagram along with the photo: “Please forgive us on @irelandamvmtv tomorrow!!! So excited @muireann.o #GarthBrooksDublin”.

But at the concert, the duo did not expect to meet a GAA king.

During the night, Tommy and Muireann unexpectedly met Galway senior hurling manager Henry Shefflin.

The presenter so took to his social media once again as he published a snap with the GAA legend.

The picture, shared in his Instagram stories, was just captioned “Major fan”.

Thousands of people have attended the Garth Brooks concerts and many celebrities have also been spotted.

In total, Brooks will play another two times in Dublin, on Friday September 16 and Saturday September 17, which will be his fourth and fifth gigs in the city.
