In 1985 Kenny Rogers played Farm Aid wearing a white blazer with pushed up sleeves, an Adidas shirt tucked into jeans, and some swagger. Only he could do that. Kenny was a real one. RIP, dude. pic.twitter.com/nSun434B2j

Kenny Rogers is right up there with Glen Campbell and Conway Twitty as one of the greatest country singers of all time. I wish The Gambler a beautiful ride out into the sunset.#RIPKennyRogers (1938-2020) pic.twitter.com/4ix9qmhsVk
