Garth Brooks is still a hot ticket
these days. Dude sold out nine concerts booked for Kansas City's Sprint
Center, which seats 18,000. My math says that amounts to about 162,000
tickets.
This huge welcome back to the performing world comes despite the fact that his last real career push before retiring was as Chris Gaines, about eight years ago. He did release Scarecrow (which went on to sell five million units) just before officially retiring but I say it's his short resume as a comedian that keeps him in the hearts of fans.
I vote that he should just do a stint on SNL to
liven things back up a bit. Here's a few clips of Garth on SNL to close
out those last fifteen minutes of "work" for you.
