Most fans of country music would agree that Garth Brooks is a living legend who still plays incredible concerts, whether they're in a stadium or a dive bar.

However, some took exception to his winning Entertainer of the Year at the CMAs, particularly over Carrie Underwood. Many took to Twitter to voice their frustrations. Here are some of those tweets:

Brian has been working in pop culture and media for about three decades: he’s worked at MTV, VH1, SiriusXM, CBS and Loudwire. Besides working as a writer and an editor-in-chief, he’s also appeared on air as a pundit, guested on radio shows and hosted podcasts.
