Luke Littler makes the most of darts-free weekend with trip to Blackpool

For a change, Luke Littler's calendar was open last weekend having failed to qualify for the International Darts Open. Making the most of his free time, he decided to join friends for a day at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

In doing so, "The Nuke" fulfilled a promise to his girlfriend. Indeed, during the World Darts Championship, where Littler eventually lost in the final, he was asked what he was going to do with the prize money he won.

To that, the 17-year-old Englishman replied that he would like to take his friends to Pleasure Beach, the famous amusement park in Blackpool. Last weekend, he lived up to his word.

The amusement park shared a photo on social media showing Littler posing at The Big One. This is the theme park's biggest roller coaster. Littler himself shared a photo with his girlfriend after riding Valhalla (a soaking wet water ride).
