Wrexham's wild Las Vegas party pictures emerge as Hollywood stars join them
Wrexham stars have been partying hard in Las Vegas after achieving their third successive promotion, and the pictures have now emerged. Next season, the north Walian outfit will be getting their first taste of Championship football since 1982. Birmingham won League One with 11 points, with Phil Parkinson's boys finishing second place on 92 points. This meant Wrexham did not have to take part in the play-offs, securing their place in the English second division automatically. Their achievements have earned them yet another all expenses paid trip to Sin City, courtesy of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The players flew out on a private jet on Thursday with trips to a pool party, the Bellagio Hotel and Hakkasan nightclub. After spending the day loading up with beers, some of the players reportedly got a little over excited and started jumping in the elevator, causing it to break down. It took firefighters an hour to get the players out, but after being released they had one of the best tables at the venue, with onlookers claiming they tipped their waitress £3,000. Read more about that here. The entire trip is estimated to be costing around £500,000, with McElhenney and actress wife Kaitlin Olsen joining them. Regular visitors of the famed Hakkasan nightclub, the players were welcomed back again on Thursday with Instagram footage and photos showing the club paying tribute to their success with the crest emblazoned on the LED screens with the speakers blasting: 'Wrexham FC, red army'. Wrexham's stars could be seen pictured with superstar DJs Steve Aoki and Diplo at two different venues. House DJ Cedric Gervais was also pictured with the boys. Dan Scarr could be seen driving a luggage cart through a Las Vegas casino as guests looked on dumbfounded. Scarr arrived from Plymouth Argyle ahead of this season, so it was his first trip to Vegas with the club. Below is a selection of the best pictures from the last few days in Vegas.

However, the trip stateside to Vegas has been all about the players, and has reportedly cost McElhenney and Reynolds a staggering £500,000.
