Here’s
a perfect reason to not mess with Willie Nelson’s mascot armadillo.
You know, the one that has been stolen twice…..and returned. Willie
is about to turn 81 years old, and he’s about to get promoted in martial
arts. Nelson will receive his fifth-degree black belt in the art of
Gong Kwon Yu Sul, a Korean martial arts system, on April 28 in Austin,
Texas. Willie has practiced martial arts since he was a songwriter in
Nashville. He often practices on his tour bus. Whoa, that must be a
time when fellow musicians abandon to private quarters.
