Leicester City just pulled off the improbable, and they’re celebrating in kind.
Tottenham’s 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Monday gave Leicester City theĀ 2015-16 Premier League title. It’s a remarkable feat for the Foxes, who earned promotion from a lower division just two years ago and entered the season with absurdĀ 5,000-1 odds to win the EPL crown.
Leicester City was idle Monday, but playersĀ convened at striker Jamie Vardy’s house to watch Tottenham-Chelsea determine their fate. When the clock struck zero to clinch the Foxes’ title, Leicester City players went nuts, and left back Christian Fuchs captured the incredible scene on video.

We would tell the players to act like they’ve been there before, but considering this is the first EPL title in Leicester City’s 132-year history, we’d say they deserve to party like there’s no tomorrow.
