Hollywood Stars Bring Joy to Local Fans
In a delightful surprise for Wrexham locals, Ryan Reynolds, the co-owner of Wrexham AFC, made a memorable appearance at The Fat Boar pub last night, accompanied by fellow Hollywood star Channing Tatum. The duo brought smiles and excitement to the pub-goers ahead of Wrexham’s match against Cambridge United today.
A Toast to the Town
Reynolds, 48, took to the microphone to announce that he would be treating everyone in the pub to a round of drinks. The actor’s charming presence lit up the atmosphere as he playfully acknowledged that his generous offer might draw in even more patrons. “I’m buying a round for everyone in here, which might be bussing in another hundred people as we speak but that’s fine,” he quipped, showcasing his signature wit.
As the crowd erupted in cheers, Reynolds shared a glimpse into his life, stating, “I have four kids and this is a night off where I just get to go to bed when I want to, which I’m very excited about.” His excitement for the upcoming match was palpable as he urged fans to support the team, saying, “I hope you’ll all be watching and, you know, up the town, right.”
Heartfelt Wishes and Holiday Cheer
In a light-hearted moment, Reynolds extended his well wishes to the fans, joking, “If I don’t come and visit each and every one of you tonight in your homes, I just want to say happy holidays and all my love to your families.” This personal touch resonated with fans, who were thrilled to have a Hollywood icon interacting with them in such a genuine way.
Star Power at Wrexham AFC
The night was made even more special with the presence of Channing Tatum, who joined Reynolds in mingling with fans and taking photos. The pair recently collaborated on the film “Deadpool & Wolverine,” alongside Hugh Jackman, and their camaraderie was evident as they enjoyed the night out together.
Interestingly, Wrexham forward Paul Mullin also made a cameo in the film, appearing as “Welshpool,” further intertwining the worlds of football and Hollywood. The club has become a magnet for celebrity attention since Reynolds and his co-owner Rob McElhenney took over, with their recent match against Barnsley even being screened at Cosm in Los Angeles.
Wrexham’s Strong Season Performance
As the team gears up for their clash against Cambridge, they are currently enjoying a strong start to their season in League One. Under the management of Phil Parkinson, Wrexham sits second in the table, just behind Wycombe on goal difference, although they have played one more game. The excitement surrounding the team is palpable, especially with the backing of their celebrity owners and a growing fanbase.
Wrexham’s rise in the league has not gone unnoticed, with the likes of Danny DeVito, Kaitlin Olson, Charlie Day, and Glenn Howerton, all from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” showing their support at previous matches, alongside NFL stars Cameron Dicker and Josh Harris. This mix of sports and entertainment continues to elevate the profile of the club.
Looking Ahead
As Wrexham prepares for their match today, the energy in the town is electric thanks to the surprise visit from Reynolds and Tatum. Fans are eager to see how their team performs, buoyed by the star-studded support and the community spirit that events like last night’s pub gathering foster.
With Reynolds and McElhenney at the helm, Wrexham AFC is not just a football club; it’s becoming a symbol of community pride and celebrity charm. As the match approaches, all eyes will be on the pitch, but the memories from last night will surely linger in the hearts of Wrexham fans for a long time to come.
