He took to Instagram to share a video of himself driving a car while the text over it read, “When Morgan asks me if I wanna go to Broadway.”

Also, the caption said, “Alexa, play ‘The Chair’ by George Strait,” attracting numerous comments.

“Leave them Broadway chairs alllooooonnnne 😂,” a comment read.

However, one critic mentioned, “You might think it's funny, but your friend, Morgan, clearly has a drinking problem. You making jokes about this leads me to believe you probably do too. Get help. Wallen is turning his fans against him.”

A fan of Wallen defended him by adding, “Funny bc he rarely drinks and doesn't even look drunk in his mugshot. He doesn't have alcohol in his hands his entire concert like most of the others. But keeps spewing nonsense trying to get likes.”

Morgan Wallen slapped with charges

This came after Metro Nashville PD released a statement about Wallen via X. They said, “Country artist Morgan Wallen, 30, was booked early today on 3 cts of felony reckless endangerment and 1 ct of misdemeanor disorderly conduct for throwing a chair from the rooftop of Chief's Bar Sun night.”

“The chair landed on Broadway, close to 2 MNPD officers. His bond: $15,250,” police added.
