Jelly Roll’s gonna need a favor of forgiveness from Kansas City Royals fans after Wednesday night.
The “Son of a Sinner” singer performed with Post Malone at Kauffman Stadium in a stop on The Big ASS Stadium Tour Part 2.
It was a big night for The K, which doesn’t host as many concerts as its parking-lot mate, GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. (Here’s why The Star’s Rashad Alexander thinks it should.)
And then Mr. Roll got the name wrong.
From the stage set up in center field in front of the stadium’s fountains, Jelly delivered his customary come-to-Jesus speech.
“Normally this is the part of the show where I would tell you a lot about myself. But what I’ve learned is, me being on this stage has absolutely nothing to do with myself,” he said.
“Me being on this stage tonight has everything to do with me finally surrendering my life to the man upstairs that gave me the chance to stand on this stage.
“And I know some of you all didn’t expect this to happen at a Post Malone show, but we’re gonna start this show tonight by goin’ to church, Kansas City. Is that OK with you all?”
And this is where he could have used that divine intervention.
“I said can we go to church right now at Chopper, at Price Chopper Stadium right now?”
Where? What?
When TikTok user Allisa_marie95 posted a video of the moment, commenters assumed the show was at Arrowhead.
“It wasn’t even at arrowhead it was at Kauffman …. Directly in front of him was a huge price chopper logo …. I’m sure he just assumed,” she wrote to commenters who were not OK with the blunder.
True.
As a longtime partner of the Royals and the team’s official grocery store, that red-white-and-blue Price Chopper logo is prominent in several places around the K.
And at least he didn’t call The K the home of the Chiefs.
But does anyone else think that Price Chopper Stadium has a certain ring to it?
