Garth Brooks Says He’ll ‘Send a Plane’ to Travis Kelce So He Can Sing ‘Friends in Low Places’ at His Bar Opening
Garth Brooks has a proposition for Travis Kelce.
Ahead of Brooks’ Friends in Low Places Bar & Honky-Tonk opening in Nashville on March 7, he reached out to Kelce, 34, after seeing his performance of the 1990 hit at the Kansas City Chiefs’ 2024 Super Bowl victory parade.
At the Feb. 14 event, Kelce grabbed the microphone and attempted to sing Brooks’ song, much to the country crooner’s delight.
Did you guys see Travis Kelce’s version of ‘Friends in Low Places?’ Did you see him sing this? I loved it, I thought it was fantastic,” Brooks said during the latest episode of his Inside Studio G, Brooks’ weekly live series on TalkShopLive.
It blew me away because I’m sitting there watching it as it’s going down, right? I never expected that,” he added.
Brooks said he wasn’t planning on attending his bar’s upcoming opening but would go if a certain Kansas City Chiefs tight end were to show up.
“Big man, I’m just telling you this. I will be at [the] grand opening if you’re there,” Brooks told Kelce.
I’ll send a plane if you want and come and get another shot at the title. If you want to come sing that, I’ll send a plane,” he continued.
“You can come by yourself or bring your brother or your gang, whatever you want to do. The plane holds 11, just remember that. So, yes, I’ll be happy to send this invite out to you if you want to try a little ‘Friends in Low Places’ in Friends in Low Places.”
Brooks’ comments come after Kelce told the crowd at Wednesday’s parade, “If you know this song, sing along!” before launching into the hit track.
At one point, Kelce sang the line, “Took that glass of champagne…” before pausing and looking over his shoulder at teammate Patrick Mahomes, laughing, “Pat took that glass of champagne, I promise you.”
