Guy gets over £700 of free drinks at Wetherspoons after posting table number on Twitter

The Wetherspoons app is an absolute godsend, granting users the power to order food and drink from the comfort of their seat.

Long queue at the bar? Put an order in. Absolutely hanging from the night before and can’t move? No problem, get the app out.

One man’s early morning trip to his local Spoons turned into a very boozy affair, after he posted his table number on Twitter.

Karl Phillips, aka The Captain, posted a picture of himself enjoying a pint at The Gold Cape Wetherspoons in Mold to his 232k followers on Saturday morning.

This was at 10.40am, and he was soon asked what table he was it, to which he answered ‘54’ – this is when his Saturday took an interesting turn, as people started sending him drinks via the app.

Booze started arriving at his table en masse, and at 11.14am Karl tweeted: “Well fcuk dis shit Jesus wept who keeps sending me drinks they piling up like fcuk lads”.

About twenty minutes later, things started to get daft, and he tweeted: “Well come on lads pack it in I’m leaving in a minute weatherspoins [sic] have taken over 700 quid worth of orders”.

But it turns out he wasn’t leaving, as he updated his followers at 2.57pm to say ‘it’s getting tasty now lads’.

It’s unclear when Karl called it a night (or day), but at 1.25am on the Sunday he Tweeted: “Bunch of fcukers I’ve just woke up fcuk me I was in hell of a mess cheers”.

What a night!
