WATCH: Garth Brooks Invites Scotty McCreery to Become Newest Member of Grand Ole Opry

By Joe Malone Dec 5, 2023 | 10:47 AM

It’s going to be a great Christmas for Scotty McCreery. While on stage at the Grand Ole Opry Sunday night, he was joined by Garth Brooks, who came bearing a big wrapped box – a “Christmas present” for the singer.

“Merry Christmas,” Garth said, handing McCreery the wrapped gift. “This is a Christmas present to the Grand Ole Opry…We would love to invite you to be the newest member of the Opry.” A stunned McCreery took the box as the crowd went wild.

“Holy cow. Yes, I would love to,” McCreery replied. “I grew up listening to your records, Garth, and you’re a part of what made me want to do this for a living and didn’t think that dream would become a reality, but it is because of all of y’all sitting in this house tonight. God bless y’all.” McCreery’s induction ceremony will be at a date yet to be announced. See a clip of Scotty’s big moment below.
