Holy Cow! Chris Young Just Made a Huge Splurge Purchase [Interview]
Chris Young has been dropping No. 1 hits since 2009's "Gettin' You Home," so it's a safe bet he's padded his bank account enough to afford a few fun purchases every now and then.
As a recent guest on Taste of Country Nights: On Demand the "I'm Coming Over" singer dished on a recent purchase he made that's pretty cool.
Chris Young's Biggest Splurge Purchase
Holding up a single finger to the camera, Young — an avid Texas Rangers baseball fan — showed off a shiny Texas Rangers World Series ring on his ring finger.
It's the size of a ping pong ball!
But when pressed for details, Young played coy.
"I got really cool friends," he says. "So I won't go too far into it, but there's a couple buddies of mine — one that works in the Cowboys organization and one that works with the Rangers."

"They were in Nashville, I took them out to dinner, and then they heard me say something about, 'I dunno, if one day somebody ever gave up, like, a World Series ring, I would try and buy one just to have it,'" Young recalls, sharing more details than he'd intended.
The Texas Rangers mean a lot to the country singer, so this purchase makes sense. "I used to live in Arlington. The only two places I lived were Arlington, Texas, and Nashville," he explains.
"I was at one of the World Series games with a friend of mine that's a TikTok influencer, and I worked with the MLB, I was like, 'I would buy one.'"
Young's dinner buddies got to work on making it happen.
"They got on their phones and basically had a boat race with each other at dinner to see who could get approval faster," he says.
Does Young plan to wear his ring as a daily accesory?
"Absolutely not," he assures. "I'm wearing it for these interviews today just 'cause I knew it would be a talking point."
Well, it worked.
