There was a letter sent to the Irish Times yesterday eulogising Kilkenny hurler Tommy Walsh for his dedication to the fans after his side's loss to Dublin in the Leinster Championship semi-final replay on Saturday.
It turns out that dedication is not unique to Walsh amongst Irish sports stars as Brian O'Driscoll showed when he stopped for an autograph signing session today.
Would have been easy for Brian O'Driscoll to duck out of this autograph-signing session today. Impressive pic.twitter.com/ZPBYwxuQ9D
