You just never know where Kendall Jenner will show up: One minute, it could be sunbathing with her reggaeton boyfriend on a Miami rooftop after seeing Luis Miguel in New York? The next, he might swing by an Indiana Kroger to chat with the manager. That's how Jenner's routine has gone this week, thanks to what appears to be a major tour of the American Midwest to promote her troubled tequila brand, 818.

Here he is, 818 tote in hand, complimenting some random University of Michigan students' makeshift bar and playing a round of darts in their living room:

Watch out, Iowa!
