Well Evansco2, I Understand what your saying...he was Young there..and MrGeorgestrait97, Let them talk. they dont know what they are missing..The King is awesome and i think we all would agree to that. Weather they are from around there or not they are just to get noticed. Long Live the King:)

It also says Entertainer of the Year which he won twice. Once in '89 and again in '90. So my guess is very early 90's.

I love love love george strait. Thanks for posting this! I wish there were live performances of "it ain't cool", that I could find. That's my song.

I think this was recorded at some point in mid to late 1991 or 1992 at the latest and not 1998. I remember this commercial airing on TNN a lot in the early '90s.

The hits appear to cut off in early 1991 after "I've Come To Expect It From You", which spent 5 weeks at #1 starting in December 1990 and running into January 1991. This commercial could have re-aired in 1998 but it's origins are the early '90s.

@ACcountryFan: Great point. The commercial mentions that he had 22 #1 Singles and 14 Gold Albums -- numbers he would have LONG since surpassed by 1998. On the Billboard Charts, his 23rd #1 was 'I Cross My Heart' in late 1992, and while albums sometimes take a while to reach Gold status, he currently has 15 Gold albums from 1981-1991.

My tape with this ad is definitely from 1998, but I'm changing the year in the title to 1991 -- the most likely date of production.

Thanks for the heads up.

@MrGeorgestrait97

oh...sorry...I didn't mean anything by it. It's just the way we talk around here. Boy doesn't mean boy literally and it definately wasn't a slam to him.

[MrGeorgestrait97]

@evansco2 ok well thats how the ppl from around here (texas) talk to, but theres some ppl that go to my school that arnt from here that think its OK to talk bad about him and it SOSOSOSOSOSO is NOT!!!!!!!!!!!
