Luke Littler won’t be forgetting his 18th birthday or running out of alcohol any time soon.
The darts sensation turned 18 on Tuesday, meaning he is now legally allowed to go out and buy booze.
Littler received a fitting birthday present now he is of legal drinking ageAFPHowever, the newly-crowned world champion may opt to stay home and concoct a mixed drink or two instead thanks to a special delivery.
As one of undoubtedly many presents received on Tuesday, Littler received a special three-litre bottle as well as a giant gold dart from Au Vodka.
The giant dart featured Littler’s nickname, ‘The Nuke’, on the flight while the bottle depicted the teenager lifting the Sid Waddell Trophy.
Au Vodka sales director Tom Smith was the man tasked with making the delivery and shared snaps of Littler’s birthday haul.
Football fans may recognise the Au Vodka brand given one of their co-founders was at the centre of a rather infamous moment involving former Chelsea superstar Eden Hazard.
Hazard was sent off when Chelsea played Swansea City in 2013 after he appeared to kick a ballboy named Charlie Morgan.
Morgan and his friend Jackson Quinn went on to create Au Vodka, which is worth a reported £150m and is based in Swansea, in 2015.
Both co-founders – now worth around £55m – found success young like Littler has, with Morgan being 19 when he created the brand and Quinn 21. As for Littler, the personalised delivery came just days after he enjoyed a moment to remember at Old Trafford.
A boyhood Manchester United fan, Littler paraded the Sid Waddell Trophy at half-time during the Red Devils’ 3-1 loss to Brighton on Sunday.
Littler was initially meant to show off his silverware before kick-off.

Speaking to MUTV prior to kick-off, Littler opened up on his feelings about returning to Old Trafford as the king of darts.
“It means the world to bring the trophy pitchside at the club I’ve supported all my life,” Littler said.
“I’m grateful for the opportunity.”
Littler’s appearance at Old Trafford followed his quarter-final exit at the Bahrain Darts Masters to Gerwyn Price.
It meant the 18-year-old was unable to defend his crown as fan favourite Stephen Bunting took out the title.
Littler’s world championship celebrations included a trip to Old Trafford last SundayRexBut he won’t have to wait long to get back on the oche as he is due to take part in the 2025 Dutch Darts Masters, which begins on January 24.
A deep run in the Netherlands will help Littler continue adding more to his career earnings.
Thanks to his world championship triumph where he beat Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in the final, Littler has now amassed over £1.5million in earnings.
