Travis Scott forgot that he was in Kansas City for a second.

Travis Scott recently kicked off the second leg of the Astroworld tour. The rapper's been touring relentlessly since the fall following the release of his Grammy-nominated album. You could only imagine that with such a hectic tour schedule, it's hard to keep track of where you are sometimes. Clearly, that was the case for Travis Scott who thanked the wrong city at the end of his show in Kansas City.

Travis Scott seems to be stuck in Astroworld himself. During last night's show in Kansas City, the rapper exited the stage after thanking the wrong city. "St. Louis, I love you. Get home safe," he said. The rapper may have been a bit ahead of schedule in his own mind since he is performing in St. Louis tonight. 

Speaking of Astroworld, the Mayor of Houston blessed Scott with a key to the city after announcing that a new amusement park will be coming to H-Town.

"We owe so much to this guy for keeping Houston on the map," Mayor Sylvester Turner said about Travis Scott. With 'Astroworld,' man, and those of us that remember Astroworld, and because of him, we're gonna bring another amusement theme park back to the city. This city loves you."

The second leg of the "Astroworld" tour is set to conclude on March 24th in Charlotte, NC. Peep the dates here.
