Rugby, far more so than other sports, really brings out the creativity in its fans when it comes to costumes.
Not content with wearing their country’s jerseys and maybe a rub of face paint, rugby fans seem to find it entirely acceptable to dress up as whatever they like - particularly flowers for some reason.

Or in the case of this Irish fan, what exactly? A shrub? Giant patch of clover?
We really don’t know.
He would be even more striking if he wasn't surrounded by equally eccentric mates.
This has to be the best match day costume ever! @JOEdotie @ballsdotie pic.twitter.com/9kJ5nf8Rjc

As Keith Wood says in the commentary, "Carnage!".
