Bootlegger has shown off his new teeth with a trip to the boozer.<\/p>\n
The Wrexham super-fan, real name Karl Phillips, had posted a selfie early on Thursday showing off his old teeth, alongside the caption: "New gnashers day".<\/p>\n
And hours later, Bootlegger was at it again as he posted a clip of himself holding a pint in a pub, thanking his dentist. It seems the boozer is Phillips' second home with the Wrexham fan known for his love of a pint.<\/p>\n

In the video showing off his pearly whites, Bootlegger wrote: "Well alright lads no more looking in the mirror worrying about my rotten legs special thanks to Dr Tom and the team".<\/p>\n
The social media sensation is a regular on Twitter having rose to fame with his YouTube vlogs of games featuring the Red Dragons. Though he previously admitted he never used to be a fan of football.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to Bootlegger, he was never much of a football enthusiast as a boy, saying: \u201cFootball wasn\u2019t really on my radar as a young lad. I was too busy ducking and diving.<\/p>\n

But his passion grew with Bootlegger having been rewarded in recent months with Wrexham's return to the EFL.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cAfter a few videos of just larking about, I went on to vlog my match-day experiences. My first was for a home match \u2013 Wrexham v. Cambridge.<\/p>\n
"I uploaded the video and titled it \u2018Bootlegger MOTD\u2019. It gained a bit of a cult status amongst the Wrexham diehards. Before long, I found myself interviewing various locals."<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cI got the knack of editing and embedding graphics. I really did think I was going to be Wrexham\u2019s answer to Steven Spielberg. I created different characters, like Bubba Ball Bag and Taffy. These were the main protagonists. But there was one character that didn\u2019t require so much acting. He was \u2018The Bootlegger\u2019, AKA The Captain.<\/p>\n
