Man Visits 51 Pubs In Nine Hours To Attempt World Record

It’s not official yet, but there could be a new Guinness World Record for most pubs visited in 12 hours by an individual.

Actually, this would be the first record for such a goal.

A British man named Matt Ellis, visited 51 pubs in 8 hours, 52 minutes and 37 seconds and consumed at least 4.2 ounces of a beverage at each pub.

Ellis said his reason for trying to set a record was to raise awareness about the issues the food/drink industry are having due to the COVID pandemic.

Ellis has submitted his record to the Guinness World Records for the official title.

Matt Ellis’ epic 20-mile pub crawl required having a drink at every single bar (and a few toilet breaks). https://t.co/NPf65v7nsx
