Bono Dons O'Driscolls Shirt in New Zealand

25 Nov 2006
New Zealand fans were over the moon as Bono came out dressed in an All Black Rugby Shirt with their captains number 7 on it in Auckland tonight.

At the end of The Saints Are Coming he pointed at his All Black shirt and asked the crowd "Do you know who this is?".

The crowd roared as Bono proceeded to change his All Black jersey, revealing a green Irish rugby jersey sporting the number 13. "Do you know who this is?"

A show of Irish solidarity with Brian O'Driscoll, the Irish number 13 who had his collar bone broken against New Zealand in 2005, in a tackle with then captain Tana Umaga.
