'Will Grigg's on Fire' Creator Rewarded with Free Wigan Athletic Season Ticket

The internet has been taken by storm in recent weeks by an infectious chant, sung by Wigan Athletic fans for their hotshot striker Will Grigg.

The 24-year-old scored 25 goals as the Latics secured promotion to the Championship by winning League One, leading dedicated supporter Sean Kennedy to create an instantly memorable chant to the tune of Gala's Freed from Desire.

Here's how it started:

Kennedy has since been rewarded for his ingenuity with a free Wigan season ticket for the 2016/17 Championship season, as confirmed by club chairman David Sharpe.
