Country star Zach Bryan vowed over the weekend he’ll fly like an Eagle over Kansas City and never play that town again.
The Grammy winner and devoted Philadelphia football fan has been sniping with K.C. Chiefs fans for months and that beef reached a new ball-spiking level after one fan asked why he’s “singled out one fanbase” which “sells out his shows.”
“Please understand I will never play in Kansas City,” Bryan responded on X.
Bryan played in Chiefs country less than a year ago, Aug. 20-21. performing two gigs at T-Mobile Center, which is just 7 1/2 miles northwest of Arrowhead Stadium, workplace of three-time Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes and Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce.
Bryan’s disdain for the Chiefs doesn’t seem to impact the country star’s choice to play before fans of other NFC rivals.
He’s set to play Friday at Golden Gate Park in the heart of San Francisco, where presumably a handful of 49ers fans will be enjoying his music.
Then in September, he’ll play shows in South Bend, Indiana, and Ann Arbor, Michigan, where some Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions supporters will surely be in attendance.
The NFL regular season is a little more than three weeks away, as Philadelphia seeks to defend its Super Bowl title.
The Eagles visits Kansas City on Set. 14, in the marquee matchup of Week 2.
The last time these two clubs met, Philadelphia hammered Kansas City, 40-22, in New Orleans on Feb. 9 as the Eagles lifted the Lombardi Trophy for a second time and denied the Chiefs a third consecutive title.
