There were plenty of star attractions in the New York St Patrick's Day parade but none caused a stir quite as big as a man behind the barrier viewing the festivities.
Dubin GAA icon Jason Sherlock was in New York for the parade and was front and centre as the parade made its way down 5th Avenue.
A huge contingent of gardaí were marching in the parade but while they moved down the street in their finery, they couldn't help but break from the formalities to meet a true GAA hero.
