Can you believe that George Strait isn’t a member of The Grand Ole Opry?
Sixty #1 hits, five Entertainer of the Year Awards, 33 platinum albums, and 13 that went multi-platinum. Over 120 million records sold worldwide and the King of Country Music, but not a member.
So, while it’s not exactly known why George Strait never really had a relationship with The Grand Ole Opry and never became a member, the likely explanation is simply: He wasn’t in town to perform.
The Opry insists there was never any bad blood between the two – it just simply never worked out.
Do you think The Grand Ole Opry should make George Strait an Honorary Member?
