14-Year-Old Video of Koe Wetzel Singing ‘Friends in Low Places’

This may have been the second video ever uploaded to YouTube: "Me at the Zoo," then "Friends in Low Places-Koe Wetzel," and the rest is history. Yeah, of course that's not correct. But it's old -- that's what I'm getting at.

Koe Wetzel graduated from Pittsburg High School in East Texas, and if you check out those decade-old YouTube comments, it looks as if these PHS Pirates knew they had something special growing up in their quiet little town.

He's hard to recognize, the video is grainy, and there aren't any eff bombs -- but it's definitely him. You may even remember, Koe told us about this, singing Garth Brooks at a high school talent show, during one of his Radio Texas, LIVE! visits. Shoutout WhiskeyRiff, coming in clutch digging up another great old video.
