Wrexham is scoring on the Strip.
The Welsh expert champion soccer team owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney is commemorating its promotion to the English Football League with a sweep of Vegas hotspots.
The journey started Thursday night at Hakkasan Restaurant and Nightclub. The team took pleasure in supper, the requisite giant-sign spelling the squad's name, and champagne bottles shooting sparks.
The group is taking pleasure in fortuitous timing in VegasVille. Hakkasan is celebrating its 10th anniversary (opening the weekend of April 25-27), with Wrexham kipping down a dual party.
The team won the National League champion with a record 111 points, returning to the English Football League after a 15-year lack. The storied franchise was founded in 1864 and acquired worldwide attention after the television and movie stars bought the then-downtrodden team for $2.1 million 2 years back.
The Wrexham players are continuing their journey to Vegas with a schedule heavy with Tao Group Hospitality celebration destinations, including Marquee at the Cosmopolitan and Wet Republic at MGM Grand.
Spago at Bellagio is also on the hot list, and Resorts World has actually freely recruited the team on social media by using a welcome dinner.
Reynolds and McElhenney are new to professional sports ownership. Reynolds is popular for many film roles, including the "Deadpool" franchise, "The Adam Project" and "Free Guy." McElhenney is cast in the FX comedy series "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.".
Wrexham striker Paul Mullin told GQ publication of the journey in a story published this week. Reynolds and McElhenney are paying the entire tab.
" It became a thing where if we won the league, we 'd get a holiday," Mullin informed the bar. "So we're off to Vegas. Ryan and Rob told us to leave our cards at home, they're sorting the lot.".
