Former NFL star defensive end J.J. Watt is serious about his new investment in Burnley, the Premier League football club. In an attempt to understand Burnley’s fan base, he took part in a pub crawl with the locals. When asked about his drinking expedition, he said, “ I’ve learned that the history, tradition and supporters, it’s all about respecting and honouring that. You never want to come in and try and do something that’s not true to who the club is and what we’re trying to do is show people what real Burnley is about.” He continued, “It’s research, I’m doing research and lots of pints of Guinness along the way. But it was a lot of fun and really good to get to know them on a personal level, and hopefully they get to know us as well.”
