Headline: UNCAPTIONED: George Strait sets new US concert attendance record

Caption: George Strait Sets New US Concert Attendance Record. Strait played in front of 110,905 fans at Texas A&M's Kyle Field on June 15, Fox News reports. The feat broke the all-time concert attendance record in the U.S. which was previously held by the Grateful Dead. In 1977, the Grateful Dead played to 107,019 fans at New Jersey's Raceway Park. Breaking records isn't anything new for Strait. He has the most No. 1 singles in any music genre, and he's the only musician to get a top 10 hit every year for the past three decades, Fox News reports. He's also had the most No. 1 country albums, selling over 120 million records globally. Among those in attendance at Kyle Field on June 15 were Gov. Greg Abbott and Sen. Ted Cruz.
