AT TRAINING LAST week, the Munster squad met some of their young fans, with Simon Zebo in particular looking amused by the occasion (see pic below).
With that in mind, because it’s a Bank Holiday, we’ve decided to raid the photo archives and retrieve some of the most memorable pics of Irish sports stars posing with babies, as seen below.
Now give us our Pulitzer already!
