Welcome to The List,
Thomas Rhett admittedly isn’t the BEST fisherman out there, in fact he had a pretty bad fly fishing mishap earlier this year … “Well, I’d had three or four Miller Lights, let’s just preface it with that. And I was trying to cast into the wind, and I’m not a super-experienced fly fisherman, and so, when I casted back and went forward, the wind took it and just whipped it right into the back of my leg.” He DID however thank Miller Lite for not making it as painful as it could have been.

Sam was performing at the Ryman when he said, “I recently had a baby girl named Lucy Lu. I think being out here, and in the music business and being out on the road, has sort of hardened my heart. My heart’s definitely a lot harder in a lot of ways since I left that small town. It’s amazing how that little girl melted that all away overnight a couple of weeks ago.”
