Mitchell Tenpenny Remembers Meeting Bob Saget on Nashville Squares

Fans, and friends of actor Bob Saget were shocked Sunday January 9th to learn of his passing. Bob was on tour, and even performed a show the previous night in Orlando, where he was found unresponsive in a hotel room.

Mitchell Tenpenny was someone who grew up watching Bob’s work, and was sadden to hear the news.

Mitchell shared a picture of himself, Jimmie Allen and Bob Saget with the comment, “Got to meet and hang out with Bob when me and Jimmie Allen did Nashville Squares. He was so kind to us and most of all very funny. He took extra time to make us feel special and I’ll never forget that. RIP to a legend.”

Nashville Squares was a country music themed version of Hollywood Squares that aired on CMT.

Here’s a clip of the episode that included Mitchell and Jimmie from November 2019.
