Drop goal: Good deed scores high with fans

A BAND of 16 rugby supporters will be thanking the goodwill of a couple who found their tickets on a city street when they take their seats for Ireland’s Six Nations opener in Croke Park tomorrow.

The tickets were in an envelope which Brian McMahon thought had been stolen from him until news of their discovery appeared on the front of yesterday’s Evening Echo.

Callie O’Donoghue from Bishopstown in Cork spotted the package on the pavement as she was walking on Liberty Street in the city centre with her husband Paul around 7pm on Tuesday.
