Zach Bryan reignites feud with Kansas City Chiefs fans before San Francisco show
Country music star Zach Bryan has vowed never to return to Kansas City, escalating a simmering feud with Chiefs fans just days before his scheduled performance with Kings of Leon at San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. The timing — and location — are notable. The 'Something in the Orange' singer will take the stage Friday, Aug. 15, in the Bay Area, home to the 49ers, who lost to the Chiefs in this year's Super Bowl. Making matters more interesting, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — a key part of that win — is also Taylor Swift's boyfriend, and Bryan has had past online dustups involving the pop superstar as well. Bryan, a Grammy-winning artist and vocal Philadelphia Eagles supporter, reignited tensions last week on X after taunting Chiefs fans still stung by the Eagles' dominant 40-22 win over Kansas City in Super Bowl LIX. 'Where are all the three peat people from last year:/,' he wrote on Friday, Aug. 8, referencing the Eagles' 40-22 victory over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. The post prompted a wave of angry replies from Kansas City loyalists, with one user criticizing Bryan for targeting the very fanbase that 'sells out his shows.' But Bryan didn't hold back. 'Please understand I will never play in Kansas City,' he replied. In another post, he added, 'I'll be about to finish my show and then get a taunting call if I play at that stadium.' Bryan, 29, has played in Kansas City multiple times, most recently in August 2024 at the T-Mobile Center. But his social media dialog suggests those may have been his final performances in the city. When a fan asked him to remove a track recorded live at a previous show in Kansas City from his live album, he responded, 'Done brother.' But he seemed to have slightly softened his stance about the region in a follow-up post two days later, declaring, 'I miss you Bonner Springs.' Referencing the nearby town, about 20 miles away from Kansas City, he added: 'Coming to play next year.' The controversy builds on Bryan's history of provocative posts. In September 2024, he faced backlash for tweeting, 'Eagles > Chiefs' and 'Kanye > Taylor,' ending the message with 'Who's with me?' He later deleted the post and apologized, saying he had been intoxicated at the time. 'For the record guys I wasn't coming for Taylor the other night,' Bryan explained on Instagram. 'I was drunkenly comparing two records and it came out wrong… I love Taylor's music and pray you guys know I'm human and tweet stupid things often. Hope one day I can explain this to her.' In a follow-up, he added that he had been 'going through a hard time' and admitted to 'projecting a little.' 'To be completely honest, it just came off as rude and desensitized to Taylor,' Bryan wrote in an Instagram Story. 'I respect her so much as a musician… The last thing I want is people thinking I don't appreciate and love what she has done for music.'

When a user pointed out he was alienating a fanbase that sells out his shows, Bryan doubled down: 'Please understand I will never play in Kansas City. ' Bryan's back-and-forth didn't stop at concert boycotts. A fan sarcastically told him to 'take us off your live album too,' referencing his track 'Fifth of May - Live from Kansas City.' Without hesitation, Bryan replied, 'Done brother.' As of Aug. 10, the track remains on Spotify, but the exchange fueled the online frenzy. In another jab, Bryan quipped, 'I'll be about to finish my show and then get a taunting call if I play at that stadium,' poking fun at NFL officiating. He later joked about how easy it was to get under the skin of Chiefs fans: 'Bro all u have to do to piss off a chiefs fan is play a fair game of football.' Past controversies with Chiefs culture and Taylor Swift This isn't Bryan's first run-in with Kansas City's football culture.
