  "summary": "Zac Brown Band performed at Fenway Park on Sunday night, surprising over 37,000 fans with a unique gift. Before playing their 2021 song \"Same Boat,\" Zac Brown announced that he was giving every person in attendance a free cruise for two. According to Stereogum, Brown stated, \"I'm buying every single person here a cruise for two people on the boat.\"\n\nThe crowd reacted with a mix of confusion and shock to the surprise announcement. The giveaway is reportedly the largest in history, and it is tied to Brown's current tour, which is sponsored by Margaritaville At Sea. Brown has also partnered with the cruise company to create his own venue, called Same Boat, which is the first artist-designed live music venue at sea.\n\nThe cruise giveaway is seen as a promotional opportunity for the new venue and cruise partnership. No further details were provided on the cruises, but it is clear that every concert attendee will receive a free cruise for two.",
