Travis Kelce has appeared on stage at a Nashville bar in new footage of himself with San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle after being spotted at controversial US country singer Morgan Wallen’s joint.
The 34-year-old, three-time Super Bowl champion flew into Tennessee’s capital this week to help Kittle and Fox Sports commentator Greg Olsen organize a concert for their ‘Tight End University’ program, which helps aspiring NFL’ers learn the ins and outs of the position.
After addressing the audience at the Brooklyn Bowl, he was spotted blowing off a bit of steam with his pals from the side of the stage, as they all enjoyed a few beers together.
But, to be specific, Kelce was in town for a special ‘Tight Ends & Friends’ show that features the likes of Jelly Roll, Jon Pardi and more.
Kittle rallied the crowd before passing on the mic’ to Kelce, who told the packed house, ‘Let’s f***ing rock!’
In May, Nashville councilmembers rejected plans for a glowing sign to be erected, while accusing the country star of throwing a chair off a rooftop near two police officers.
The Nashville Metro Council voted 30-3 against the proposed sign. The sign would have hung over a public sidewalk, similar to those at many neighboring bars. Such a sign requires local government approval and usually isn’t a controversial process.
During debate, councilmembers called Wallen’s comments hateful and his actions harmful. They also said the performer has received multiple second chances.
‘I don’t want to see a billboard up with the name of a person who is throwing chairs off of balconies and who is saying racial slurs,’ said Councilmember Delishia Porterfield, who is Black.
An initial hearing in Wallen’s criminal case for throwing chairs near cops was postponed until Aug. 15.
