Liam Neeson is arguably one of the most famous men in the world and one of the highest grossing actors.

He’s a talented man and has played some pretty iconic roles. He is also a really sound man by the sounds of things.

Neeson starred in the Martin Scorsese’s historical crime drama Gangs of New York a few years back, where he played Priest Vallon, the leader of the immigrant Irish who was killed by Bill “The Butcher” Cutting (Daniel Day-Lewis).

In the movie, Vallon wields a big Celtic cross as a weapon.

Neeson was in New York this week and visited a well-known watering hole called The Dead Rabbit. He was obviously impressed with the place and he chose to leave them a little something special.

In a snap uploaded to Facebook the bar staff revealed that the actor left them the celtic cross used in the film.
