There’s a statue of her sitting on a rock on the courthouse lawn, her theme park, Dollywood, and the local radio station used to be called WDLY.

Everyone’s 6’5” tall country-music-singing Oklahoman released his chart-topping debut single “Austin” in 2001. And while the song was a huge smash that 24 years later, he still can’t leave the stage without playing, he was known as much for his mullet as the heart-warming, love-gone-right ballad.
