Luke Combs surprises students with Grand Ole Opry tickets, backstage meet-and-greet
Luke Combs treated a group of young agricultural students to the night of a lifetime earlier this week when he gave them free tickets to his Grand Ole Opry show and even invited them backstage for a meet-and-greet.
It all started on Twitter, where a teacher reached out to Combs ahead of his scheduled Opry show.
“I have my Willows CA FFA Chapter here in Nashville tonight, and they are DYING to see you at the Grand Ole Oprey!” the teacher tweeted. “We tried to get tickets, but our kids can’t afford it. I so wish I could give them this gift because they idolize you.”
Combs saw the message and replied, telling the kids that he’d be sure to get them into the show. “Tickets are on me! Y’all have fun tonight,” he wrote.
"Oh my gosh!! You do not know how much this means to these kiddos!" the teacher responded to the good news. "Some of them have never even been to a concert before and this would just be the most incredible experience for them! We are so grateful for you!!"
But that’s not all. The “Forever After All” hitmaker dropped by before the show, surprising the crew of students with a meet-and-greet and a chance to take a picture. The Opry shared the special moment on its social media.
“I just wanted to come in and say thanks for being able to make it,” Combs told the students. “I just wanted to come in and say that was actually me talking to y’all [on Twitter.]”
