If there is anyone who could drop us in a can of Lilt, we'd be ever so appreciative.

Suddenly, after seeing Shane Lowry with the iconic Caribbean-inspired drink in his hand, we're feeling totally tropical. The Clara man has come a long way from being the son of Offaly football legend Brendan to one of the best golfers in the world. The world number 31 sunk a hole-in-one at the US Masters over the weekend, which almost made up for his weekend collapse after a glorious opening day at Augusta. He  even got married in New York this week and we hope the wedding had a nineties theme. https://twitter.com/ShaneLowryGolf/status/720269005974544385 We've come across a picture shared by the Club Faithful Instagram account of a very youthful looking Lowry, and if you can find a more 1990s child than young Shane, with his tin of pop, short pants, GAA jersey, and junior Adidas Predator boots, then you deserve the can of Lilt over us. https://www.instagram.com/p/BEHTVqPqu-3/ If anybody has any other pics of international superstars as kids then we'd love to see them, cans of Lilt optional.
