Brian O'Driscoll pokes fun at self after losing Twitter blue tick

Brian O'Driscoll has poked fun at himself after he was stripped of his blue verification tick on Twitter.

New changes have rolled out on the social media platform with users now having to pay for the now infamous blue tick.

The tick was used to verify accounts such as high-profile sports stars, journalists, politicians, and celebrities.

But Twitter has now stripped most users of their tick including O'Driscoll.

The Irish Rugby legend poked fun at himself saying he held onto the blue tick and shared a photo with a badly drawn beside his name.

O'Driscoll now spends his time as a rugby pundit after his post-playing career and does work with BT Sport and Off The Ball.
