Canadian Country singers Chad Brownlee and Brett Kissel get in YouTube war over Vancouver Canucks

Tuesday, April 24, 2012

As we all know, the Canucks were eliminated by the LA Kings in round 1 of the playoffs. People braced for a riot and when it didn't happen Vancouverites congratulated themselves on keeping it together (actually I don't know this as fact...but you could see why I would think this).

Rising country music star Brett Kissel, who is an Edmonton Oilers fan wrote something on Facebook mocking the Canucks first round loss as well as tweeted “Riot in Vancouver again? Bahaha Vancouver loses! go Kings go!  Kissel insists it’s all in good fun and even wrote a song as an apology to all the Canucks fans disappointed with his tweeted words. Canucks fans were upset before Kissel wrote an apology song to the tune of Alan Jackson's "She's Gone Country".

Chad Brownlee responsed making a video in response to Kissel's song... to the tune of the country song "Red Solo Cup".
