Blarney beats Tipperary in this scenario.
What's Blarney?
A small town/suburb in Cork. Also the home of the Blarney Stone and the origin of the word 'blarney'.

Not a bad reach for a town of around 2k population.
I kissed the blarney stone once, disgusting business. I lay down, half my body hanging out under the parapet, while a man held on to my legs. Reached up my head and put my lips on the stone. What was I thinking?!?
Mrs Doyle! Didn't expect to see you off Craggy Island.
