A few weeks ago, Combs and Ed Sheeran were in Texas together when they performed a duet at the ACM Awards; Luke took time to teach Ed to shotgun a beer. Combs does it every night on his stadium tour around the time he sings his "Beer Never Broke My Heart" anthem.
Both Luke and Ed posted a video clip of the shotgun lesson on their Instagram. Sheeran says in the video clip to the camera, "For context, Luke is what shooting?" Luke says, "Shotgun." Ed says, "Luke is teaching me to shotgun a beer." Combs says, "You want to be mindful of where your top is cause one side opens beer is coming out." He holds a beer can up and directs, "So you want this point moving to the sky? Once you're up, your gonna crack the top, and it just goes." Luke asks, "You want me to go first, or do you want to do it together?" Sheeran says, "Let's do it together, right?" Combs says, "Alright, count us down." Ed counts to three, and the guys both "shotgun" their beers, drop them to the ground and laugh.
Sheeran captioned the post on his Instagram, "Learning how to shotgun a beer with @lukecombs."
