Labor Day is coming and we’ve all had jobs in the past that we worked to simply pay the bills. Most of us have been fired from a job or two. That is no different for country superstars Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney.
Tim once had a job along with Tracy Lawrence and Kenny. The trio of aspiring country stars (at that time) got fired because of Kenny according to Tim.
“One of the jobs that I had, there was a place called Houndogs Hot Dogs that was right on the corner of where the circle is now in Nashville, where the statues are. And ‘Flash’ Flanagan was the guy who owned it. So, Kenny Chesney, Tracy Lawrence and I sat with guitars on stools just playing music for people that would come up and buy hot dogs. And we lived off those hot dogs. And I think Kenny got us fired because there were clown heads on the trash cans, and our job at the end of the night when we finished singing, we were supposed to take the clown heads, run a chain through ’em and lock ’em up. And I think Kenny didn’t do it one night and they got stolen, and we got fired.”
I think the three of them ended up landing on their feet after losing that job.
Have you ever lost a job because of something somebody else did?
