Luke Combs Bullied His Dad Into Eating Meat Again

Apparently, Luke Combs’ dad was a vegetarian for many years when he was a kid.  But one day Luke had enough and bullied him into eating a steak again.

I know Luke is a big dude and former football player, but the thought of trying to tell my dad what he was allowed to eat would NOT have gone over well.

To be fair, Luke lived in Asheville, North Carolina growing up, which he described as, quote, “The San Francisco of the east coast.”  So going vegetarian was not that unusual.

But one day Luke could take no more.  He said, quote, “I was probably 13 or 14 at this time and just had enough.  I was putting my fat foot down.  So, I remember going up, and we had made this steak, and my dad was eating his, like lentil loaf or whatever he’s eating. I remember just looking at him, and I’m like ‘God this guy looks sad over there.’  I was like, ‘Dad, eat this piece of steak dude.’  I just straight up called him out . . . and he popped a piece in and never looked back.  Definitely didn’t stick to his guns on that one.”
