Country Singers Who’ve Performed the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Halftime Show

If it's Thanksgiving, there a high percentage that the Dallas Cowboys will be on your television.

The NFL squad — known as America's Team — are a staple on the holiday and usually have a midday game on the fourth Thursday of every November.

They host their Turkey Day matchups on their home field, and the Cowboys use the event to kick off the Red Kettle Campaign with the Salvation Army. And let's just say, Dallas knows how to put on a party.

Each year since 1997, the game features a special halftime performance with a big artist playing a medley of hits in between the second and third quarter.

This year's game will feature a performance from Post Malone. The newly minted country singer is a big fan of the Cowboys and has a special history with them, as his father used to be the Assistant Director of Food and Beverage for them.

He's not the first country singer to take the stage, however. In fact, the majority of Thanksgiving halftime performances have been artists from the genre, including Reba McEntire, Luke Combs, Thomas Rhett, Carrie Underwood and more.
