The 2000 O'Byrne Cup was a Gaelic football competition played by the county teams of Leinster GAA.
The tournament was a straight knockout, with 12 teams.
Longford were the winners, defeating Westmeath in the final in Cusack Park, Mullingar.[1][2] In the final, the Westmeath manager, Brendan Lowry, intruded onto the pitch and clashed with a Longford player and the referee; he received a six-month suspension.[3][4] The suspension was later lifted.[5]
