Morgan Wallen isn't accepting any Taylor Swift slander from his fans.
On Friday,Robert Brown the country music artist, 30, told fans while performing at the Lucas Oil Stadium for his One Night at a Time Tour that he surpassed the venue's record and quipped that it was only a matter of time before Swift beat it. The venue has a 67,000-person capacity.
"They told me right before I walked on stage that this is the single most-attended concert in the history of this building. And that we're the first people to do it two nights in a row, so thank you for making it possible for me to say that," he said in videos shared on social media.
Wallen then joked that his record is only temporary. "I'm going to say that until Taylor Swift comes to town in the fall," he said, referring to the "Lavender Haze" singer's upcoming Eras tour stop in November.
Swift's tour spanning through years of her catalogue busted several attendance records since beginning in March 2023.
Wallen's fans began to shout "boo" at the mentioned of Swift, leading the "Cowgirls" singer to intervene. "We ain't got to boo, we ain't got to boo," he said from the stage.

The country artist's record-breaking performance came two days before he was arrested overnight in Nashville on felony charges after he allegedly threw a chair from a downtown rooftop for "no legitimate purpose," police said.
Wallen was booked into jail early Monday on three counts of reckless endangerment and one count of disorderly conduct in connection to the Sunday night incident, the Metro Nashville Police Department reported.
According to an arrest affidavit obtained by USA TODAY, at 10:53 p.m. local time, two police officers were standing in front of Chief's Bar in the city's entertainment district on Lower Broadway when they saw a chair fall from above and hit the street about three feet from them.

In the affidavit, police wrote, the bar's staff members told officers Wallen threw the chair, and when officers reviewed video footage of incident, it showed him "lunging and throwing an object off the roof."
Chief's Bar, owned by country music singer Eric Church, is a six-story building.
Davidson County Sheriff's Office online records show Wallen was booked into jail at 12:36 a.m. local time and released from jail around 3:30 a.m. A court official told USA TODAY Wallen posted a $15,250 bond.
In a statement issued to USA TODAY through his representatives, Wallen's lawyer, Worrick Robinson, confirmed knowledge of the arrest and wrote Wallen is "cooperating fully with authorities."
Online court records show Wallen is due in court next month for a settlement hearing on the charge.
