Footballer celebrates stag weekend in Vegas

Footballer Tommy Williams celebrated his stag night in style last weekend, just weeks after his side secured promotion to the second tier of English football.

The Peterborough United left-back jetted off to Las Vegas for his stag weekend with teammates Aaron Mclean, Russell Martin and George Boyd in tow ahead of his wedding later this month, the Peterborough Evening Telegraph reports.

But despite being on the other side of the Atlantic, Williams admitted the foursome would not let that get in the way of the biggest match in the English football calendar.

They ensured they were up at 7am Vegas time to catch the 128th FA Cup Final between Chelsea and Everton, before continuing with their stag weekend celebrations.

Williams said: "I am marrying Nicola on June 13 so I decided now would be the right time to have my stag do and what better place than Las Vegas?"

Having kicked off his career with a spell in Chelsea's youth ranks, Williams will no doubt have been pleased with the result, which saw the west London club secure a 2-1 victory at Wembley to win the trophy for the first time since 2007.
