Kenny Chesney Sells 106,000 Tickets Within Hours was a Top 3 story on Friday: (Radio.com) Kenny Chesney recently announced that he will play two stadiums shows in Boston next August and his fans reacted by purchasing 106,000 tickets in just hours. "I didn't know if it was the right thing. It feels a little like cheating, because I said I was taking the year off," Chesney said in a statement.

"I called my manager and my promoter, said, 'I know it's unconventional, but I'd really like to play Boston - even if it's just once,' he said. "Now they tell me we sold over 106,000 tickets in a couple hours." Read more - here.
