Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on September 26, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Aurélien Rougerie! The man who sprinted down the wing faster than a Frenchman chasing fresh baguettes and tackled opponents harder than tourists tackling escargots. Your legendary tries for Les Bleus and ASM Clermont Auvergne still echo in stadiums—and probably haunt defenders' dreams.

From your dazzling runs at Stade Marcel-Michelin to unforgettable moments wearing France's blue jersey, you've given rugby fans countless reasons to cheer (and rivals plenty of headaches). May your birthday be as epic as that Top 14 championship victory with Clermont—timelessly celebrated but without any bruises this time!

Cheers to you, Aurélien—the ultimate rugby legend!
