THE World Club Challenge may not have gone Saints' way but comedian Johnny Vegas has his own memento to remember the occasion.

Film superstar Russell Crowe's decision to snub the Oscars in favour of watching his beloved South Sydney at Langtree Park added a touch of glamour to the event.

And a headline which appeared in the Daily Mirror, which read 'The Oscars? Nah, I'd rather be in St Helens!', went down a storm in the town in the build-up to the game.

 

Now funnyman  Vegas, who joined stars of The Last leg Souths fan Adam Hills and Alex Brooker for the World Club Challenge, has been there and got the t-shirt.

He posted on his Twitter page on Monday a photograph of himself wearing the top which features the headline.

 

Johnny will appear on tonight's (Friday, March 6) Comic Relief special of The Graham Norton Show alongside guests including Jack dee, Cheryl Cole and Jennifer Saunders. And the Thatto Heath funnyman wore his prized new shirt for the appearance.
