And this year, McElhenney took their friendship to another level by dedicating a park in Wrexham, to his dear friend on his birthday, with the help of another Hollywood A-lister, Chris Pratt.

The tradition of surprising each other on their birthdays started when Reynolds presented McElhenney with a commemorative urinal on his 45th birthday.

This year, McElhenney chose to honor Reynolds in a unique way.

The birthday banter saga of Wrexham owners

As mentioned earlier, it all started when Reynolds surprised McElhenney with a commemorative urinal. In response, on Reynolds’ 46th birthday, McElhenney took a sarcastic revenge. He flew a blimp with Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool character’s unmasked face, which Rob amusingly described as “A hideous but surprisingly inexpensive way for the world to finally see Ryan Reynolds as he’s meant to be seen”.

Not one to be outdone, Reynolds took it up a notch on McElhenney’s 46th birthday. He produced a fully-fledged music video highlighting the difficulty in pronouncing the name of the star from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”. With McElhenney striking back now, fans can only await his next birthday to see what creative antics Reynolds will come up with next.
