Auburn football field destroyed by Kenny Chesney concert

Remember how neat and pristine the field at Jordan-Hare Stadium looked for the Auburn spring game? Well, three weeks later, it’s barely recognizable.

The culprit? Kenny Chesney.

That’s right. The country singer played a concert at Auburn’s football stadium Saturday night, and between the stage, the equipment and the thousands of fans on the field, it took quite a toll on all the hard work put in by the grounds crew.

The concert was part of the Music and Miracles Superfest 2016, an event that also featured performances by Miranda Lambert, Sam Hunt and Old Dominion.
