There’s a well-documented feud happening between Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton, and it all surrounds farming.
But it has escalated to a new level now that involves their tractors.
Bryan has taken shots at Shelton for his vegetable growing capabilities in the past, and now the “One Margarita” hitmaker wants to call the “Sangria” star into a tractor pull-off challenge.
In an exclusive interview with Taste of Country Nights, Bryan went out of his way to make it clear to Shelton that the ball is now in his court.
“I’m sponsored by Fendt Tractors and he’s sponsored by Kubota. Maybe we will have a little tractor pull-off one day,” Bryan notes.
Shelton isn’t just sponsored by Kubota, his roots with the brand run deep: His dad used to sell Kubota tractors.
The two country stars have taken friendly shots at each other’s growing skills before, but now Bryan is hitting Shelton right where it hurts: The machinery.
For clarity, Bryan and Shelton are friends and regularly text each other about farming. But we all know, once you question the size of a man’s tractor and how he uses it, it’s on like Donkey Kong.
“You know, Blake and I can always have some fun banter back and forth,” Bryan says, lightening the attack.
A tractor pull-off between Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan would make for great television — even pay-per-view!
