A year ago Brad Paisley opened The Store, his free grocery store in Nashville.

They had a number of meals that they were set up to give away . . . and then came COVID and demand drastically increased.

Brad appeared yesterday on “The View” and said, “We opened last year, and you can imagine, immediately we were hit with this crazy demand.

“We expected to do about 300,000 meals last year.  And we ended up doing a million in January.  We weren’t even a year old yet.  I don’t know how we did it.  But you rise to it in a time like this.”

Actor Kevin Nealon appeared on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune where he played for The Store and raised $47,250.
