Country music star Morgan Wallen knows how to get the locals on his side.

On Friday night, Wallen performed a concert at Neyland Stadium, home of the Tennessee Volunteers football team. Wallen, a Tennessee native, got the crowd hyped for his show by making his walkout to the stadium flanked by members of the Vols national championship-winning baseball team.

Of course, they brought the trophy along for the trot.

The crowd was on its feet.

Over the summer, the country star performed a concert at Arrowhead Stadium and walked alongside Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Chris Jones, all while rocking a No. 7 jersey, the number of controversial kicker Harrison Butker.

You have to be a megastar to sell out stadiums, and Wallen has had no issue. Bringing out some of the local stars is definitely a plus.

He returns to Neyland Stadium on Sunday night.
