Nashville SC Co-Owner Marcus Whitney got the surprise of his life on Christmas Day, as his wife surprised the long-time Tottenham Hotspur fan with a trip to White Hart Lane this weekend to see Spurs in their final season at the legendary ground.

A member of Nashville Spurs, a supporters group that gathers for every game at Belcourt Taps in Nashville, Whitney and Nashville Spurs Chairman Wes Robinson told their story to the Premier League’s social media team pitchside prior to Saturday’s game with Middlesbrough.

“My wife, Rachel, conspired to put this together,” Whitney said. “I wanted to come out this year, big time, but I had a lot going on. It was Christmas, and they got me a present that was a book about the Lane. I opened it up and there was a plane ticket. It was brilliant, I’ve just been on Cloud 9.”
