From dogs to gods for the O'Donovan brothers

Gary O’Donovan looks giddy. He has every right to be, having just won an Olympic silver, but this goes beyond that as even on the biggest day of his life, he can’t help himself. 

As he takes his place at the press conference, he’s fiddling about like an unsupervised child, wondering just how he’ll amuse himself next. Devilment lights up his eyes. Then, amidst a lack of questions, it hits him. He grabs the microphone and decides to interview the third-place Norwegians. He doesn’t do a bad job of it either.

It doesn’t last long though as he’s hyper now and gets bored with that after a few minutes but he’s not completely finished. Soon after, “DJ Gary is in the house,” is announced from the speakers. He giggles to himself. The volunteers are enthralled, having been subjected to so much of the same when the media talk to athletes.
