Morgan Wallen Rocks Chiefs Jersey While Stepping Out With Travis Kelce & Patrick Mahomes at His Show
Morgan Wallen took over Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., on Friday (Aug. 2) as part of his One Night at a Time tour — and he had a special surprise guests at his side.
In videos posted to social media, the “Last Night” singer was seen stepping out into the stadium with Kansas City Chiefs superstars Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and Chris Jones. In the video portrayed on the stadium’s big screen, the group dap each other up and walk together through the backstage corridor to the tune of “WHISKEY WHISKEY” by Moneybagg Yo, featuring Wallen.
Wallen is seen rocking a Chiefs jersey of his own in the video, with his last name written on the back alongside the number seven, which also happened to be the country superstar’s own high school football jersey number.
Later in the evening, a man was charged after threatening on social media to shoot “two individuals, who were members of the Kansas City Chiefs organization” and who were present at the event, according to the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office in Missouri. The statement, which referred to the felony as a “terroristic threat,” was released Saturday by Michael Mansur, director of communication, on behalf of Jackson County’s prosecutor, Jean Peters Bak.
As a result, the show was delayed 40 minutes. In court documents, the defendant was quoted as saying, “It was a stupid, stupid, stupid mistake.” He claimed he had never made threats in the past on social media and stated again that “it was stupid.” His girlfriend told investigators that the alleged threat was posted, and then deleted, on a “burner” account where he’d “tweet stupid stuff.”
“The defendant was charged earlier today and a $15,000 bond was set. Prosecutors requested a $250,000 cash bond,” according to the prosecutor’s office.
