Welcome to The List –
We start today with Garth Brooks talking about winning the ‘Entertainer Of The Year’ Award too many times … Now, Garth took a lot of grief on social media the last time he won the award. “We got killed pretty bad last time we won this…there was one (tweet) that I just loved, that just said basically, ‘Hey man love ya to death but don’t you think it’s time? Say it’s time, love everybody, hug everybody and from here forward just be known as the guy that got to win it this many times” The ACM Awards take place tomorrow on CBS.
