Global reaction to pub's free beer 'own goal'
Briefly

Beccy Webster, landlady of Gedling Inn in Nottinghamshire, gained global attention after offering a free pint for every goal Nottingham Forest scored. Following a surprising 7-0 victory against Brighton, she gave away almost 300 pints, costing up to £1,500. Despite the financial hit and numerous inquiries about her business's status from around the world, Webster cherished the positive experience. She committed to honoring the initial promise, showcasing dedication to the team and her patrons. Inspired by this event, she plans to organize more deals for future matches, celebrating her local team's success.
It's been overwhelming - but it's been lovely to have something good come from what looks like a loss.
I said we had to carry it through and stick to our word and we have to back Forest all the way.
I haven't added up the total because I'm still in shock, but I would say over 1,000, maybe close to 1,500.
We will definitely do offers and deals for future matches.
