* NOW A LOOK AT COUNTRY MUSIC & THE PEOPLE MAKING IT TODAY *

       Kenny Chesney Trained With New Orleans Saints

Thanks to Kenny Chesney, the New Orleans Saints were
given a day off from their training camp in Jackson,
Miss. Chesney was at the camp on Monday (Aug. 11) to
join the Saints during practice for a second year. Be-
fore Chesney suited up and hit the field, coach Sean
Payton told the players he would cancel Sunday’s
(Aug. 17) practice if Chesney caught a punt. On his
third try, the singer grabbed a 45-yard kick from
punter Steve Weatherford. “I quit growing too young
to ever think about getting to have a shot at playing
even in college, so this is about the most fun I can
have,” Chesney said. “It’s like having a lot of these
players come out and sing with us during ‘Back Where I
Come From.’ … Sometimes just having the moment to
feel what it’s like to do it is the greatest feeling
in the world.” Chesney performed Thursday at the New
Orleans Arena.
