5 Times Nigel Owens Proved He Was the Funniest Person on the Internet

The renowned rugby refereehit back back at a Twitter user, who labelled him a "wa***r" following England's 2020 Six Nations defeat against France.

"What a wa***r Nigel Owens is," declared @tomtallis11.

Owens' retort was quick and quirky, tweeting: "It's a shame your father wasn't one."

Such characteristic charisma was once again on display back in 2016 when Owens received a spam message in which he was offered the promise of ‘nude breasts’, to which the openly gay ref hilariously responded:

Owens was forced to defend himself for taking place in the widely enjoyed Citroen adverts during the 2019 Rugby World Cup.

Twitter user Katie Marshall suggested the inclusion of a ‘bear’ in the car advert promoted animals being made to perform “demeaning and unnatural tricks to entertain the public”.

Not as funny, but spot on as always.

One image of Gianluigi Buffon contesting the referee's decision to award Real Madrid a penalty in 2015 went viral as it looked as if Buffon was preparing to kiss the ref.
