When the rugby stars come out to dance

GIVEN that it was Brian O’Driscoll’s 100th cap last Saturday, and all of a sudden everybody has a Brian O’Driscoll story, we thought we’d share ours.

Good or bad? We’re not sure, but we’re pretty positive it’s the only one which links BOD and the thriller writer Elmore Leonard, though.

Over the last few years we’ve had a couple of encounters with the great O’Driscoll. At a Six Nations launch in London a couple of years ago we bounced our question of the year off him – who would win between a bear and a shark if both had enough room to fight properly – and he was game enough to try an answer.
