They all seem to REALLY like Tony.

What happens when you mix a legendary Father Ted reference, passionate Irish fans, and a healthy love and respect for RTÉ correspondent Tony O'Donoghue... comedy gold, that's what. JOE reader and Cork man Graeme Barry, along with five of his friends, attended Ireland's opening group game of Euro 2016, and brought along something very special with them. As pictured outside Stade de France, here's Father Noel Furlong's most famous quote to describe the nation's affection for Tony. I really like Tony And here's a look before it made the big trip to France... Tony O'D cover Wonderful, just wonderful.
