Morgan Wallen's Broadway bar sign has received approval from the Nashville Metro Council, just days after his court sentencing for a chair-throwing incident. The council voted 30-1 (with six abstentions) to permit the sign installation at 'Wallen's This Bar and Tennessee Kitchen.'

The approval comes after Wallen's December 12 court appearance, where he received a sentence including:

• Seven days in a DUI education center
• Two years of supervised probation
• Charges eligible for dismissal and expungement upon successful probation completion

The chair-throwing incident occurred on April 7 at Chief's bar, where Wallen allegedly tossed a chair from the rooftop, nearly hitting two police officers. He later issued a statement taking responsibility for his actions.

The approved sign design features:

• "Morgan" text positioned above
• Red and white "Wallen's" lettering
• "This Bar" logo underneath
• Additional Tennessee-shaped signage on the building

The council's decision came despite concerns from some members regarding both the chair-throwing incident and Wallen's 2021 racial slur controversy.
