Dublin Bus were caught out by a Back To The Future prank this morning

Marty McFly would approve.

As pretty much the whole world knows by now, today is the day that Marty FcFly travelled to in Back To The Future. October 21st 2015 was the date and it has been marked by all manner of memes and GIFs. Some took to Twitter to mark the occassion and have a bit of fun with it, like this chap:

The Dublin Bus social media team fell for it hook, line and sinker:

@funjicey Hi Martin, what bus are you on, where is the bus now and what direction are you travelling?

Bless their cotton socks for showing concern and they'll be glad to know that all was not as it seems:
