Meanwhile, a lot of great Toby Keith stories have been floating around following his death on Monday, February 5 from stomach cancer at the age of 62.

But the best one might be about the time Willie Nelson got Toby SUPER high.

“Willie’s got that real chronic, medicinal stuff . . . I couldn’t even function. It was like, the most hardcore weed that I’d ever had, and I’d only hit it like three or four times, and unlike Bill Clinton I did inhale.”

It was such a landmark moment in Toby’s life, that he even wrote a song about it, appropriately titled “Weed with Willie”.
