Please welcome Faith Hill.
(cheering)
There's no question that Brooks & Dunn
have set the standard for being practical jokers.
We were on tour in Canada, long time ago.
(cheering)
HILL: Yeah!
It was the night before our last show.
I was exhausted and I was ready for some sleep.
Um, I pulled back my covers, to tuck myself into bed,
and there it was-- a slimy eel, defrosting in my sheets.
(laughter)
All I could think was, "Let the games begin."
The next day, after our final show,
we were crossing the border back into the U.S.
I don't know how it happened, I really don't,
but Ronnie and Kix were pulled into the immigration office...
(laughter)
...where the police conducted a strip search.
(cheering)
Needless to say, that was the last time
that they asked me to open for them.
Thank you so much for 20 years
of solid, great country music
with serious attitude.
Tonight, it's time for "The Long Good-bye."
