George Strait, 73, has been called the King of Country Music for quite some time now, and it's clear that he's earned the title not just for his career accomplishments, but because he's also just a genuine, down-to-earth human being. He appreciates his fans just as much as they appreciate him.
On June 14, Strait played a concert in Buffalo, New York, and on the day before the show, a few lucky fans got the thrill of their lives when he stopped to sign autographs for them. Based on the video of the encounter that was shared on TikTok, they'd seemingly been waiting and hoping to catch a glimpse of the star, though they couldn't have known whether or not he'd actually stop to interact with them.
Sitting in the back seat of a black, luxury SUV alongside his wife, Norma, Strait had the window rolled down, and after seeing a young fan approaching him with a guitar to sign, he sweetly said, "Hey big guy... How we doin?!"

People who watched the clip are loving this encounter, and one person said, "Taking his time to show his appreciation to his loyal fans. King George! The GOAT."
Another fan added, "He's such a wonderful man to do that for his fans ❤️"
Someone else perfectly stated, "That was such a sweet and kind thoughtful thing to sign those autographs for those young kids. They’ll never forget that. That’ll be the highlight of their years. They’ll talk about this forever. Thank you, George. That was sweet. You have a very sweet, loving kind heart very thoughtful too they’re still good people out there. Thank you for being one always."
