No

Molester Stallone

Definitely no

themandan6611

No

rwg

Is he dead? - then NO

blindside88

Cringe isn't the word. It's a no from me

thomond2006

I think that's more appropriate if a player has passed away no?

Prawo_Jazdy

yes certainly , if it happens to coincide with him scoring a try at that exact time

Sandwlch

I dont think that would be fitting. It needs something bigger.

I am thinking: 13th second of the 13th minute, with the score at 13-13, the ref stops the match. Ref, 29 other players and all the crowd applaud as everyone leaves the stadium. It is set alight as they leave and burnt to the ground. All the worlds rugby players hang up their boots, all unions disband, the game of rugby is never played and again and the number 13 is removed completely from the world of mathematics.

But that probably woundnt be big enough a salute. It just needs more I feel to do the man homage.

Diabhal Beag

I didn't even know he was sick

Hagz

Yes.

Yes we can.

HeidiHeidi

You start it. We'll join in. Honest.

best post I've ever read on boards

Duckworth_Luas

What if there is a penelty kick on the 13th minute?

You would have to clap and "shush" at the same time!

It's simple, we kill the Henson!

keano_afc

It could work, but only if we sing Olé Olé/Stand Up For the Boys in Green at the same time.

Grimebox

At least get another "one more year going" if/when he scores a try

But that will get in the way of a Mexican Wave.

Will this not be a bit confusing for Michelle Campagnaro the Italian 13?

Skid X

Terrible idea.

We will never see his like again, but keep the focus on the game. Save the tributes for when he has retired.

I'd say he'll be loving it.

just shocked reading these posts that no one has mentioned a live sacrifice of some sort....what has the world come to

I think we have to add a thirteenth month to the Gregorian calendar.

brrrrrrrr.... lousey BODtober weather

Yes assuming that at some point in the 13th minute he does something BODish like a wonder pass or a gravity defying turnover or a bone shuddering tackle or score, otherwise no

thomas anderson.

We all partied

tomtucker81

Will Bodtober be when the 6 nations starts in future? So we'd have January, February, Bodtober, March.
what a fitting tribute.

Did he die?

who_me

Even we Munster fans appreciate his awesomeness. In his honour, I plan to further intermix my family genes in order to develop an additional, 13th finger. All the better to applaud his stupendousness.

I'm more surprised that you seem already to have twelve.

Valetta

come on goys.

We can all raise up our plastic hoyno glasses and clap singlehandedly with the other hand.

Dricho, Dorce and the boys will be humbled.

ArmchairQB

Standing ovation when he comes off the pitch in last few minutes (hopefully) or prolonged chanting of his name until he comes off or until end of match.

From a movie called the natural when the guy was asked how he would like to be remembered, he said "as the best there was, the best there has been and the best there will ever be" could have been talking about BOD!

Hope I will see some one in the future who has been so good over a career but I doubt it! It has been my privilege to watch the great one over his whole career to date. Thank you BOD!!

Dont worry about it, the RDS will take care of the real send off at seasons end.

Christ this is unbearable. The man must be dying of embarrassment.

How about we have a minutes booing of any clowns trying to shame all of us with such over-sentimental gestures?

Wow that's quite powerful.

teared up watching that. Lovely video and a nice tribute from a place where BOD made a big impact giving up his time to visit the kids

Would love to see the clowns slating him on that AH's thread do it after seeing that

The sad thing is, they would still find a way.
