Oliver Regis already had a $2,500 ticket to see his favorite MMA fighter, Conor McGregor, take on Floyd Mayweather Saturday night.But the British bartender realized his seats were in the nosebleeds. And when you've got a giant tattoo of McGregor on your leg, you can only do one thing: Upgrade.
From
The Sun:
He pretended to be with Floyd Mayweather Jr's security team and shadowed them past security - who he claims failed to scan his ticket, which would have exposed him.
Oliver, from Stamford, Lincs., then plonked himself down in the third row - right next to the ring during the bout before McGregor's.
The pint puller told The Sun: "I did feel a bit cheeky - but this was a once-in-a-lifetime chance. I could not believe it worked.
"There were quite a few empty seats.
"I sat down in the third row and Mike Tyson then sat down behind me. LeBron James was on my row and I could see Leonardo DiCaprio."
Regis also did exactly what you'd expect in that once-in-a-lifetime position - he snapped photos with every celeb he could find:
That included Jamie Foxx, Gerard Butler, Jennifer Lopez, P Diddy, Mike Tyson and others.
"It was quite nerve-racking asking Tyson for a picture," he told The Sun. "He didn't say anything - just nodded his head."
