As the odds of three men named Padraig Pearse, Michael Collins and Eamon de Valera all being pals, travelling to the Rugby World Cup together and being late for their flight would seemingly be astronomically high, we reckon Cardiff staff are victims of a cheeky prank.
That didn't stop the inevitable jokes in reply to Neil O'Riordan's tweet.
