Stephen Bunting is known in the darts world as “The People’s Champion.” The 40-year-old Englishman is hugely popular with fans, and his appeal extends beyond darts too, as last weekend once again showed.
Bunting was invited to attend the
match in the Championship — the second tier of English professional football — between Coventry and Wrexham. Coventry, already assured of the title and promotion to the Premier League, beat Wrexham, sixth in the table, 3-1 at their own Coventry Building Society Arena.
After the final whistle, Bunting was invited into the Coventry dressing room by the players. Together with “The Bullet,” they belted out his walk-on song, “Titanium” by David Guetta ft. Sia.
The players also roared the well-known chant “Let’s go Bunting Mental,” often heard in darts venues.
