Do you love when friends drop by unexpected? Do you then lift then up in the air?

Chris was performing this weekend in Pennsylvania, and as he started his number-one song “Famous Friends” – Kane Brown walked out on stage to surprise Chris.

And then the lift…

It is funny that the Kane Brown lift happened on the weekend of the 4th anniversary of Chris Young lifting Vince Gill after Vince extended an invite to be an Opry member.

Chris admits, “Evidently it’s tradition when I’m surprised to pick someone up over my head!”

While Chris is singing his latest single at country radio with Mitchell Tenpenny, we haven’t heard any reports of Chris lifting Mitchell up…yet.

Watch their music video for “At The End Of A Bar.”
