With the Super Bowl kicking off on Sunday, the Philadelphia Eagles set the tone early as they dominated the Kansas City Chiefs. And even with Patrick Mahomes leading the team, the Eagles continuously pressured the quarterback. Not able to get around the defense, the Eagles walked away Super Bowl champions. But even before the kickoff, New Orleans spent an entire week celebrating the big event. And when it came to Post Malone offering fans a concert, Dallas Cowboys legend Emmitt Smith was in attendance, making it a dream for the singer.

While Malone found his calling in music, the singer always found a way to support his favorite team, the Dallas Cowboys. Other than loving the Cowboys, the star is also a huge fan of Bud Light. So when the beer company asked Malone to hold a concert before the Super Bowl, he jumped at the chance. And to his surprise, Smith wasn’t about to miss the moment as cameras caught him rocking out with a few drinks in his hand.
As for Smith, he is more than a football player as he held the record for most career rushing yards and the most rushing touchdowns in the regular and postseason. Considered a legend among fans of the Cowboys, many celebrated alongside Smith with comments reading, “Get it Emmitt. I aint mad at him. He living life.” Another person added, “Mr. Emmitt is the epitome of what real football players were like.”

Wanting to share a friendly jab at Gillis, Malone added, “It’s amazing being in a Super Bowl ad with Bud Light for the fourth time, which is crazy. [That’s] way more than Shane will ever do. … I’m very passionate about the product and the whole organization.”
