Home of good times – Home of good people
Let’s talk about how amazing everyone was at the fall finale of Saloon Star this week! Our Top 10 came to put on a show and demonstrate why they were the next Saloon Star Champion. In the end, showstopper Ally walked away with our grand prize of $1000, swag presented by Dos XX, as well as two tickets to see Chris Stapleton October 28th! You go girl!
Congrats to the rest of Top 3, Lexi and Rylin who wowed the judges. It was a tight competition with a lot of spectacular moments and we can’t wait to see who will win the next Saloon Star when it comes back in Spring 2024!
