“When a country legend’s voice breaks mid-sentence, you know you’re witnessing grief in its rawest form.” At the Cowtown Coliseum this Memorial Day, George Strait stood before a hushed crowd, fighting back tears as he honored rodeo champion Roy Cooper, who perished in a house fire just weeks earlier. “Roy was one of my very best friends. I can count those on one hand. He was my hero,” Strait confessed, the weight of those words visibly heavy on his shoulders. What makes this friendship even more poignant is knowing Cooper once said he’d give his prized rodeo belt buckle to Strait “if he would wear it”—a testament to a bond that transcended fame and fortune, connecting two legends through genuine respect and shared memories.
