Tim McGraw wrapped up his Sundown Heaven Town Tour last weekend with his wife, Faith Hill, joining him as a special surprise guest to sing his latest single, “Meanwhile Back at Mama’s.” After the final show, Tim, who is a bit of a health nut and a workout machine, Instagramed a photo of himself eating a big bag of Doritos to celebrate the end of the tour. And now that football season is about to get under way, there may be a little more junk food and a lot more workouts in Tim’s future.
Tim admits, “I’m not very healthy when it comes to football game snacks. I like cheese dip and Doritos and tacos and chili, and all that sorta stuff. Some of our favorite things that we have during football season is Frito pies. Most people, I guess, especially if you’re a southerner, are familiar with Frito pies where we just have Fritos, cheese and chili. We eat a lotta that on weekends.”
All that extra junk food doesn’t come without a price for Tim. He says eating that, “just calls for extra workouts during the week.”
