Nashville City Council Denies Morgan Wallen’s Bar Sign
Morgan Wallen’s bar in downtown Nashville is set to open this weekend.
Unfortunately, the last time Morgan was drinking down there he threw a chair off a bar roof and nearly hit two police officers.
His bar is still opening on schedule, but there was one small snag.
The owners had wanted to put up a 20-foot neon sign with Morgan’s name on it, but that plan was just overwhelmingly defeated by the Nashville City Council on a vote of 30-3.
Council member Delishia Porterfield said,
“I don’t want to see a billboard with the name of a person who’s throwing chairs off of balconies and who’s saying racial slurs.”
To be fair, there is already a sign on the building, and this would have been a second, larger sign.
Morgan currently has the #1 song on the Billboard 100 for “I Had Some Help” with Post Malone.
