    Jacobs, the biscuit ninjas, originated in Waterford.
    As did the mighty blaa.
    The Irish flag (the tricolour pedants, not the harp on green) was first flown in Waterford.
    Large bottles.
    Kiwi sticks.
    John Mullane.
    Three dog Keating.

    Well everywhere except Dublin sucks obviously, but I heard a rumour that you can only get Kearns sausages in Dublin, if that's true, then I nominate that sh*t. God I miss them...
