Clowns Were are The Center Of Kenny Chesney Being Fired
. OK, technically they weren't real clowns. They were decorations atop the garbage cans at a once well-known hot dog stand in Nashville called Houndogs. Chesney once worked at Houndogs when he was first gaining attention as a musician--as did numerous other country artists and songwriters, including Tim McGraw in his pre-"Indian Outlaw" days. Houndogs was an infamous fast-food stand owned by a guy named Flash Flanagan that used to be located on Music Row. It was a popular stop for visitors to Nashville, including not just fans but celebrities and even presidents. Many musicians played there for tips, too, on a small stage out front that according to country singer Jerry Mac (who's dubbed "The Number One George Jones Celebrity Impersonator in the Country") was "crudely built" and "about 5′ x 5′ in size." The singers attracted listeners, who in turn bought hot dogs. Chesney was once one of these singers. But his tenure didn't last long, thanks to the aforementioned clowns. Read more here.
