Toby Keith is patriotic, everybody knows that.
But he surprised even his most fervent fans -- especially a soldier and his wife -- during a stop in Houston earlier this month.
“Before I do this next song, I said I was drinking to the families tonight of the people that are proud to wear our country’s uniform,” he says in the below video. “Has anyone here tonight got a soldier, a Marine overseas that you love and honor?”
It was a gambit arranged by his staff before the show to get one woman on stage to speak about her husband,
Major Pete Cruz, stationed in Afghanistan.
The National Anthem welcomed Cruz as he walked onto the stage to surprise his wife.
"She didn't know he was coming here tonight," Keith said.
