Country music star Riley Green led a powerful tribute to the late Toby Keith during a memorable moment at the Oklahoma-Alabama football game in Norman. As the Sooners celebrated a stunning 24-3 upset victory, Green rallied the crowd in a stirring rendition of Keith’s patriotic anthem, “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue.”
Keith, a longtime supporter of Oklahoma football, was honored throughout the season, with fans regularly joining in to sing his songs. However, the tribute, with Green leading the stadium in song, may have been the most poignant. The sight of thousands of Oklahoma fans united in song, paying homage to one of country music’s biggest legends, was nothing short of epic.
Keith, who passed away earlier this year at the age of 62 after a battle with stomach cancer, was celebrated not just for his music, but for his deep connection to the state of Oklahoma and its football team. The tribute at the stadium was a fitting reminder of his enduring legacy, resonating with both country music fans and sports enthusiasts alike.
