Most things do not have a global reach. In the world of sport, the vast majority of teams are hyperlocal affairs within maybe a regional league. Even if they're national, they don't often go much farther than that. Which is why the story behind Wrexham AFC is so fascinating. After being purchased by superstars Ryan Reynold and Rob McElhenney, what would ordinarily be a small soccer team in a small city, has become a global phenomenon. Join Geoff and Hunter as they go through the wild geography that is Wrexham AFC, a formerly 5th, now 4th tier Welsh team that is attracting a lot of attention.
