Thanks be to BOD! Fans erect house-sized poster for 13's last home game

Commuters near Lansdowne Road awoke this morning to find one hell of a tribute to Brian O'Driscoll, ahead of his last home game for Ireland.

Marketing agency Target McConnells wrapped their entire office building in one big tribute to the man:

The man himself appreciated the over-the-top tribute, tweeting back - but declined to pop along for a photo, because he'd "be scarlet having a pic anywhere close to it".

Modest - that's our Brian.

Ireland v Italy kicks off at 2.30pm on Saturday - we'll be there to see O'Driscoll off at the Aviva.
