Welcome to The List,
Apparently, some movie theaters tried to have a last minute advance screening of “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” and it didn’t go well. Multiple sources say theaters were NOT happy with having to prepare for potential mass demand with so little advance notice. The irony is, the demand probably wasn’t all that great. Due to the last-minute call for the advance screenings, theaters were reporting weak crowds.

Dustin Lynch at one time was on a different path…he went to Med School before making it big. But what did his parents think of him dropping out for Country music? “When my parents started traveling around seeing the cash I was getting. They were like ‘this is good, this is fun, we can have fun with you and you’re making good money and making rent and you’re off our payroll’

Jason Aldean tells Billboard magazine that he doesn’t need to win awards to know his songs are good. “I would much rather have thousands of people screaming my songs back to me than have any number of awards. When it comes down to it, you’d rather have the people like the songs than the critics.”

Welcome to The List,
Game show host Chuck Woolery died on Saturday at his home in Texas. . . . TMZ reports that he went to lie down because he wasn't feeling well.
Chuck was the original host of "Wheel of Fortune" back in the late '70s . . . he went on to host the "Scrabble" game show in the '80s . . . and of course "Love Connection" from 1983 to 1994.
He also did some later shows, like "Lingo" on the Game Show Network, and "Greed" on Fox.
There's no word on a cause of death, Chuck Woolery was 83…

"Billboard" put out their list of the Top 100 Country Singers of All Time . . . and some folks are less than pleased. Specifically, because Taylor Swift was ranked above Brooks & Dunn, Hank Williams Jr., and Toby Keith. Also, Jason Aldean didn't even make the list at all..what’s THAT all about…..

Kansas City Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes is making around $50 million a year. But now, his wallet will be 0.03% LIGHTER . . . thanks to FINGER GUNS.
The NFL has fined Patrick $14,069 for the "violent gesture" he made last week, while celebrating a touchdown. He'd just scored on Buffalo, and Patrick used both hands to mimic firing dual pistols.
Let's be honest . . . he wouldn't have been fined for mimicking a bow and arrow . . . throwing knives . . . or dramatically acting out the extremely violent "finishing moves" from "Mortal Kombat". (Although that would be amusing.)

Chris Stapleton and Brooks & Dunn are now tied with the most CMA Awards in history. They have 19 wins each.
