Tom Brady and Mike Tyson at the Morgan Wallen Concert: Where is Travis Kelce and why is there controversy?
Wallen paid homage to Maxx Crosby
Morgan Wallen made a memorable entrance at his Las Vegas concert on Friday night by teaming up with sports icons Tom Brady and Mike Tyson. As fans eagerly awaited the show at Allegiant Stadium, a video played showing the country star greeting the legendary quarterback Brady with a friendly hug and exchanging a handshake with boxing great Tyson.
The three then made their way toward the stage, with Wallen visibly energized, bouncing around in anticipation of his performance as part of his One Night at a Time World Tour.
Travis Kelce wows with classic Rugby play
Dressed in a Maxx Crosby jersey, Wallen paid homage to the Las Vegas Raiders‘ defensive end. This choice was particularly notable given Brady‘s ongoing discussions to purchase a minority stake in the Raiders, with reports last fall indicating he had offered $175 million to team owner Mark Davis.
Before stepping onto the stage, Wallen shared some last-minute words with Brady and Tyson, giving the crowd a thrill as they witnessed the interactions between the country star and the sports legends.
Joined by Kelce and Mahomes
This isn’t the first time Wallen has incorporated sports stars into his concerts. On August 3, during his performance at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, Wallen was escorted to the stage by Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes.
That night, he wore a jersey with the number 7, which sparked social media buzz as it’s the number of Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker. However, Wallen‘s representative clarified that the number actually represented Wallen’s own baseball number from his younger days.
Butker has recently been in the spotlight for his controversial commencement speech at Benedictine College, where he emphasized traditional family roles for women and criticized Pride Month. Despite the backlash, Butker, 29, stood by his remarks, explaining that they were motivated by his religious beliefs and delivered with good intentions.
