While Jelly Roll has plenty of stories to tell about his Grand Ole Opry induction, Ernest, who performed that night, has one of his own. On Instagram, he got a little emotional as he explained. "Last night, I took the tall order upon myself to play ‘He Stopped Loving Her Today.’ When I was sound checking with the band beforehand, in the little nook backstage, I finished, I walked around the corner, and Mrs. Nancy Jones was standing right there…George Jones’ widow. She was standing right there with tears in her eyes, and she gave me a hug and said, ‘That song has always made me cry.’ I was like, ‘Oh my God, I’m so glad I didn’t know you were there the whole time. I would have been freaking out.’ But then I had to go up in front of everybody at the Opry knowing she was standing side stage. And I got the thumbs up from Mrs. Nancy Jones. There’s a Nashville Opry story for you.” Check out his video below...
