Post Malone sparks debate after wearing Brandon Aubrey's jersey at Cowboys concert

When
Post Malone
returned to his hometown stage at AT&T Stadium, fans expected fireworks and they got them. But it wasn't just his performance alongside Jelly Roll that had
Cowboys Nation
buzzing. It was his jersey. Not a tribute to quarterback Dak Prescott. Not a salute to CeeDee Lamb or any of the Cowboys' iconic legends. Instead, Post Malone rocked a No. 17
Brandon Aubrey
jersey, a move that lit up social media and split fan opinions in seconds.

Post Malone turns heads by elevating Dallas' silent star
For most, Brandon
Aubrey
isn't the name you plaster on posters or wear on stage in front of 80,000 screaming fans. But for Post Malone, a lifelong
Cowboys
loyalist whose father worked concessions for the team, this wasn't just a fashion choice. It was a statement.
Aubrey, 30, has quietly become one of the most consistent and clutch players on the Cowboys' roster. In 2024 alone, he went 40-for-47 on field goals, including a jaw-dropping 14-of-17 from beyond 50 yards. A monster 65-yarder that had fans and analysts alike raising their eyebrows.
Some see it as trolling, picking the least expected player for shock value. But those who've followed Post Malone's relationship with the Cowboys know better. This is about respect. About valuing precision, consistency, and game-changing performances regardless of position or popularity.
Post Malone elevates the underdog in a league obsessed with Stars
The move is especially notable because music-meets-sports moments usually highlight star players, not specialists. In a league where quarterbacks dominate headlines and wide receivers rake in endorsement deals, a spotlight on someone like Aubrey feels almost rebellious. It's a deviation from the NFL's glamour playbook, a reminder that impact isn't always loud or flashy. And maybe that's the point.

Post Malone has never been one to follow the crowd. From face tattoos to genre-bending albums, he's made a career out of zigging where others zag. This jersey choice fits that mold perfectly subtle yet subversive and it's forcing Cowboys fans to take a second look at what greatness really looks like. After all, in a team sport, even the quietest contributions can define legacies.

Crowds throng Raichur to witness spectacular bull power contest at Mungaru Habba
The second day of the Mungaru Samskritika Raichur Habba drew massive crowds as the highlight event — the traditional bull power contest — captivated spectators with its sheer scale and intensity. Held at the Rajendra Ganj ground, the competition featured pairs of massive bulls dragging boulders weighing two tonnes, showcasing strength and endurance in a thrilling spectacle. The All-India open competition was inaugurated by Sri Shivarathri Deshikendra Mahaswamiji of Suttur mutt and Mallikarjun Vishwaradhya Shivacharya Mahabhagavatpada of Kashipitha. Their presence added spiritual gravitas to the cultural celebration, which continues to gain fans in the region. Ten pairs of bulls from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh participated in the contest, which drew an overwhelming number of spectators from across the region. The sheer size and power of the bulls, especially those from Andhra and Telangana, left the audience in awe. Crowds lined the field and perched atop nearby shops to witness the event, cheering enthusiastically as the bulls shook the ground while dragging the massive stones. In the fiercely contested challenge, bulls were judged based on the distance they could drag a two-tonne boulder within a 20-minute time frame. The top honours were claimed by Vajrala Tejaswi Reddy's pair from Santamagaluru village in Nandyal district, Andhra Pradesh, which managed to drag the 2-tonne boulder an impressive 3,913 feet. For this feat, the owner received ₹90,000 in cash along with a commemorative memento. Close behind were Shravan Kumar's bulls from Chandrakala village in Kurnool district of Andhra Pradesh, which covered 3,900 feet to earn the second prize of ₹65,000.

Mitchell Starc Strikes As Australia Fight Back In WTC Final Vs South Africa
Last Updated: Mitchell Starc has led Australia's recovery against South Africa on the first day of the World Test Championship final at Lord's. Star Australia pacer Mitchell Starc spearheaded his team's recovery as the defending champions fought back against South Africa on the first day of the World Test Championship final at the Lord's on Wednesday. Australia were dismissed for just 212 after South Africa skipper Temba Bavuma won the toss in overcast, bowler-friendly conditions, with spearhead quick Kagiso Rabada taking 5/51. But at stumps, South Africa had slumped to 43/4 in reply, a deficit of 169 runs. Given the strength of both sides' pace attacks, the key question might be which team could put enough runs on the scoreboard. Australia's total looked a lot healthier when left-arm quick Starc had Aiden Markram playing on for a duck before dismissing Ryan Rickelton to leave South Africa floundering at 19/2. Novice number three Wiaan Mulder was reprieved on just one run when wicketkeeper Alex Carey dropped an easy catch off Starc. But Mulder added only five more runs before he was bowled by Australia skipper Pat Cummins, having taken 44 deliveries to make just six runs. It took Bavuma 31 deliveries to score his first runs, a two of Josh Hazlewood greeted with loud cheers by South Africa fans at the Lord's. But before the close, Hazlewood bowled Tristan Stubbs. David Bedingham ended the day's play with successive fours off Cummins to be unbeaten on eight, with Bavuma on three not out. Khawaja fell for an embarrassing 20-ball duck in the seventh over, edging Rabada to Bedingham at first slip. Three balls later, 12/1 became 16/2 when Green nicked low to second slip, where Markram held a superb diving catch. Rabada had now taken two wickets for four runs in four deliveries. The star pacer, who has over 300 Test wickets, is playing his first Test after serving a one-month ban for cocaine use earlier this year. Australia have struggled to find an opening partner for Khawaja since David Warner's retirement 17 months ago, with Marnus Labuschagne the latest batter tried out. Labuschagne, without a Test hundred for almost two years, battled hard for 17 off 56 deliveries before being dismissed by classic pace bowling from towering left-armer Marco Jansen. Australia had been in similar trouble in the 2023 final against India across London at the Oval, just for Steve Smith and Travis Head both scored centuries as they turned the game in their favour. Head, however, could just manage 11 before he glanced at Jansen, with Kyle Verreynne holding an excellent diving one-handed catch. But star batter Smith (66) and all-rounder Beau Webster (72) repaired the damage with a fifth-wicket partnership of 79. Yet in what could prove to be a key moment in the game, Webster would have been lbw to Rabada for eight if South Africa had reviewed an original not-out decision. Smith went to half-century before falling to part-time spinner Markram when he edged a booming drive and Jansen, at slip, clung on at the third attempt. Australia lost their last five wickets for just 20 runs, with Rabada ending the innings when he bowled Starc. First Published: June 11, 2025, 23:30 IST
