The championship began on 9 May 1982 and ended on 19 September 1982. It was the last year to date that a Kilkenny team played in the Leinster championship. Kerry were the defending champions and were hoping to win a record-breaking fifth successive championship title. Kerry qualified for the final. On 19 September 1982, Offaly won the championship following a 1–15 to 0–17 defeat of Kerry in one of the most dramatic and iconic All-Ireland finals in the history of the championship.http://www.independent.ie/regionals/kerryman/sport/other-sports/darby-the-man-well-never-forget-27375035.html "Darby: The man we"ll never forget The Kerryman 7 June 2016 25 July 2007http://www.hoganstand.com/ArticleForm.aspx?ID=83205 Offaly’s famous win of 25 years ago Hogan Stand 7 June 2016 11 September 2007http://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/football/classic-finals-1982-offaly-1-15-kerry-0-17-130777.html Classic finals: 1982: Offaly 1–15, Kerry 0–17 Irish Examiner 7 June 2016 15 September 2010 Jim O'Sullivanhttp://www.the42.ie/kerry-offaly-1982-1678799-Sep2014/ Furlong, Sheehy and Lowry reflect on the famous Kerry-Offaly game from 1982 The 42 7 June 2016 20 September 2014 This was their third All-Ireland title, their first in ten championship seasons.

London decide to play Connacht championship games in a rotational system and are dropped from the Connacht championship draws. Offaly stop Kerry from winning a fifth All Ireland title in a row in the All Ireland final. A new record of that was set by Dublin winning 6 in a row (2015–2020).
