15 Hilarious, Scandalous And Brutally Honest Tweets About Last Night’s Rose Of Tralee

Alana Laverty

Twitter during The Rose of Tralee is a strange, yet very entertaining, place.

The annual event brings every crayture out of Twitter hibernation doling out hatred, their unwanted opinion and general trolling. Including ourselves.

It was easy to get sucked into all of the rows and bitching last night, along with some rare kind commentary.

If you were as glued to it as we were then you’ll probably recognise the following hilariously bizarre tweets.
