Great Balls Of Faith

Country singer Faith Hill reportedly yelled at a fan during one of her concerts with husband Tim McGraw, when the fan grabbed Little Tug in an inappropriate place.

Here's her quote, "Somebody needs to teach you some class, my friend. You don't go grabbin' somebody else's...somebody's husband’s balls, you understand me? That's very disrespectful."

You know, once upon a time, Tim McGraw had a novelty country hit called "Indian Outlaw," which was a pretty horrible, culturally offense song that I figured would be the next Briefly-Achy-Breaky-Sensation.

Nope. Somewhere on the train to being the next country one-hit wonder, McGraw bought himself a case of medium Baby Gap t-shirts, BeDazzled them, and voila, a star was born.

Anyway, this doesn't say much for the current state of country music. The line between country and an R Kelly show just got pretty blurry. He's Tug McGraw's kid, not Usher.

Gentleman Jim Reeves didn't live in fear of a sudden package cupping at the Grand Ol' Opry. I don't remember women jumping on stage to fondle Waylon, nor Willie, nor the boys. Back in the good ol' days, if you wanted to touch George Jones's cash and prizes, you just had to wait for him to show up just like everybody else.

All I know is, the fan is pretty lucky that they were at a Faith Hill concert. If that was Lorrie Morgan or Gretchen Wilson, she'd be spitting out teeth.

Awesome! Been waiting for you to blog about this.

Yeah, No-Show Jones' "Cash and Prizes" is excellent literature. However, the thought of anyone touching that junk is kind of, well, revolting.

I once saw a lady who had to be in her sixties throw her bra at Willie.

A few beers later she flashed him him, and trust me, all the weed in the world wouldn't have been enough to make The Red Headed stranger take interest.
