Ryan Reynolds left with huge bill after wild Wrexham promotion party

Another season, another promotion for Wrexham, who will play League One football next season as their rise through the division goes on.

While they have been beaten to the title by Stockport County, who were crowned champions after a 5-2 win over Notts County on Tuesday, Phil Parkinson's side have secured back-to-back promotions, a year after they returned to the English Football League.

That promotion, which also saw them crowned National League champions, was celebrated in style with Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney pulling out all the stops to give their team an experience they will never forget.

To celebrate their achievement, the entire squad were treated to a four-day trip to Las Vegas which saw them enjoy several famous hotels and night clubs in the city, including Hakkasan and the Bellagio. During the trip, the squad also attended a Chainsmokers gig and were invited on stage by international DJ Steve Aoki, while they also enjoyed other luxury hotspots including Spago and Omnia.

The players were blown away by the two owners' generosity, with former Wrexham and Manchester United goalkeeper Ben Foster admitting it was "like nothing I've ever seen". However, it came at quite a cost for Reynolds and McElhenney who were left to foot the bill for an enormous sum of money.

"I went on the Vegas trip and it was hard work, mate, honestly," Foster said when he appeared on The Fellas podcast. "The way that Rob McElhenney and Ryan put it on for us, laid it on for us, was just like nothing I've ever seen.

"We got there and it was just straight to the shower, straight get changed, go to Hakkasan for dinner and then we're going to Hakkasan nightclub straight afterwards. All expenses paid.

"We walk in and whatever's playing, the music shuts off and they start playing a Wrexham song," he added. "We've got a massive closed off VIP area, and there's Wrexham drapes falling from the ceiling, poppers going off everywhere with confetti, glitter.

"There's a screen and it's showing like Paul Mullin scoring goals and stuff like that! It's 1am and they've stopped the music and they're putting this stuff on, and every one of us is just going 'What on earth's going on here?!'"

Asked how much cash he thought the co-owners had splashed on the trip, Foster added: "Got to be £500,000, had to be at least half a million. Genuinely, it had to be because they just looked after everything."

Such an eye-watering amount may dissuade Reynolds and McElhenney from putting on the same kind of party to celebrate their promotion from League Two, but that looks unlikely. Not only are there suggestions that the squad will return to Vegas after the season ends, some players have issued a challenge to the two actors to better what they provided last time.

"There have been rumours of us going back to Vegas again," goalkeeper Mark Howard told OLBG. "The owners put on an unbelievable experience last year. the way they look after us is fantastic." Meanwhile, captain Ben Tozer has revealed the players' ambitious message to the owners, telling talkSPORT: "All we've said to them is, 'Try and top last year if you can!' That's it."
