Bolt runs up €7k bar bill
Magnums of Dom Pérignon at Usain’s retirement party
OLYMPIC champ Usain Bolt blew more than €7,000 on booze in one night as he celebrated his retirement. The sprint legend and pals drank five bottles of Dom Pérignon Champagne – two of them £940 magnums. He also ordered a bottle of vodka at £570, three bottles of £500 cognac, 23 Red Bulls costing £5.50 each and 18 cans of coke at £2.50 a pop. Bolt – who pulled up with cramp in his farewell race two days earlier – also tipped £500 cash on top of a 15 per cent service charge added to the £6,530.23 bill.
One partygoer said: “He was buying everyone drinks. It descended into a crazy party.”
Bolt, 30, was with partner Kasi Bennett and Love Island stars at London’s DSTRKT nightclub on Tuesday during a threeday bender.
He posted a Snapchat video at 5am a day earlier pouring champagne in his ear and saying: “Don’t judge me. This is what I do. I don’t give a s***.” Bolt – who has eight Olympic Gold medals – retired after the World Athletics Championships in London last Sunday. He pulled up in the 4x100m relay. Football-mad Bolt wants a new career in the game and hopes to impress in a legends match for Man Utd on September 2 – if he’s fit in time.
