Littler joined locals at the oche, played matches with the pub’s darts team and chatted with regulars about his rise to stardom.
The PDC Darts World Champion, said:
“Nights like this are what it’s all about. The atmosphere was unreal – everyone was so welcoming and up for a game.
“I loved meeting the locals and throwing a few darts with them.”
Andy Matthews, from The Feathers darts team, was among those to test himself against the sporting superstar.
He said:
“I can’t believe we’ve just played against Luke ‘The Nuke’ Littler.
“We’re so grateful to KP Nuts and Luke for putting this event on for us. For a little darts team in Lichfield to win this is unbelievable.
“The world champion walking into our local – everyone’s faces were a picture. It’s not something you get to do everyday.”
Tracey and Mike Kingston, owners of The Feathers Inn, said:
“The pub simply erupted when Luke walked through the door.
“We have never seen our regulars look more stunned. The reaction from everyone was amazing.”
