It's been quite a year for George Strait. The country music superstar wrapped up his sold-out farewell The Cowboy Rides Away Tour, starred in a two-hour TV special, 'George Strait: The Cowboy Rides Away' and will release his live album, 'The Cowboy Rides Away: Live from AT&T Stadium.' He's also nominated for his 83rd CMA Award, for Entertainer of the Year, capping off one of the most memorable years of his career.

A lot of country stars admire King George Strait, but not all of them can call the legend a friend. Kenny Chesney is one of the exceptions, though.

An annual poll has confirmed what many people already knew: King George Strait and Garth Brooks are America's favorite country stars.

Two of the most impressive names in all of country music have risen to the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. King George Strait and Mr. Garth Brooks were called out by several of their peers, and they both made good on the dare.

Who would have thought he would have pulled through?! Ronnie Dunn said there is no way that George Strait would accept the challenge, but with the help of his wife, George Strait has complete the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.

George Strait may have hung up his touring hat, but his live show can live on forever in a soon-to-be released live album. On Sept. 16, Strait will unleash 'The Cowboy Rides Away: Live From AT&T Stadium,' a 20-track live album recorded at his very last concert.

Rumors have been swirling this week that Carrie Underwood is in talks to headline the 2015 Super Bowl halftime show, and all we can say is, it's about time.

George Strait may have already made his last stop on the Cowboy Rides Away Tour, but the record breaking hasn't stopped. Strait's final concert in Arlington, Texas broke not just attendance records -- the singer has also topped an even bigger ticket sales record!

George Strait is known for timeless country music, and his always-present black cowboy hat. At his final Cowboy Rides Away Tour stop, the singer tossed his hat into the audience, and one lucky man caught it -- and he plans on keeping it.

There are so many things that can be said about George Strait and his amazing career, and longevity, that should be recognized.

Balloons and confetti rained on the fans at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on Saturday night as George Strait played his final song, and walked off the stage forever for now. The Cowboy Rides Away ended with an all-star version of the track from 'Does Fort Worth Ever Cross Your Mind.'

The set list for George Strait's final concert in Arlington, Texas was big. The show shattered records and the singer proved his presence in country music will not easily be forgotten, or ever replaced.
