A Dutch football fan has become an internet sensation after carrying 26 pints of beer from the bar to his table in a single trip at Sunny Sports Bar in Fort William, Scotland. The feat occurred while the Netherlands faced Sweden in a World Cup match broadcast at the pub.
One man, 26 pints, zero trays
Wearing a retro Netherlands jersey, the unidentified fan ordered two dozen pints of Tennent's for himself and his friends. Rather than using a tray, making multiple trips, or enlisting help, he wrapped his arms around all 26 glasses and lifted them at once. Encouraged by shouts of 'you've got this' from fellow pubgoers, he successfully transported the beers to his table, albeit with some spillage.
Pubgoers cheer the Herculean effort
Onlookers watched in amazement as the man swaggered back to his table, prompting jubilant scenes among his pals and celebratory cheers around the pub. The video, captured at Sunny Sports Bar in Fort William, has since gone viral, with many hailing it as the ultimate pub endurance test. According to the bar staff, the fan managed to carry all 26 pints without dropping a single glass.
World Cup spirit in full display
The incident has been celebrated as a highlight of the World Cup festivities, showcasing the dedication and camaraderie of football fans. The pub's manager noted that such displays are rare but always welcome during major tournaments. The Dutch fan's remarkable feat has drawn comparisons to the Netherlands' 'total football' style, with one punter remarking, 'This is total pint lifting.'
