The fans weren't supposed to be on the pitch until the Bruce Springsteen concert next Thursday but there was no stopping the Cork public celebrating their heroes as they somehow kept their championship dreams alive.
The Rebels looked down and out with four minutes to play as they fell four behind a charging Limerick, inspired by 3-03 from Séamus Flanagan.
Despite such a desperate situation, they found the energy and courage deep down to outscore the All-Ireland champions by 1-04 to 0-01 from there.
It came down to a game-defining black-card penalty decision by Seán Stack in the fourth and final minute of stoppage time. Shane Kingston was hauled down by Kyle Hayes down the left, a move the Dublin ref deemed an attempt to deny a goal-scoring opportunity.
