Of course by now everybody’s heard about Morgan Wallen’s latest run-in with the law in downtown Nashville after being arrested for allegedly throwing a chair off the rooftop of his friend Eric Church’s new bar, Chief’s.
According to News Channel 5, officers arrested Morgan, who was pointed out by the staff as the culprit, after the chair stuck the ground just a few feet from where they were standing. Nashville Metro Police reviewed security footage and it confirmed that he threw an object off the roof.
Wallen was arrested on three counts of assault with a deadly weapon/reckless endangerment, two counts for the two officers who were in the vicinity and one for the danger to the public. Wallen was also charged with disorderly conduct with a bond was set at $15,250.
And in what can only be described as proof that God has a sense of humor, today Morgan and Eric just scored a #1 hit with their duet…”Man Made A Bar.”
A little too on the nose, right?
The song was released in 2023 on Morgan’s One Thing At A Time album, and was written by Rocky Block, Jordan Dozzi, Larry Fleet, and Brett Tyler. Church joined Wallen for a performance of the duet at the 2023 CMA Awards.
