In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy.

She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid.

The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%.

She handed out the checks herself.

In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college.

When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months.

You've probably heard that part.

Here's the part you haven't:

The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top.

Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave.

She built her county an entire hospital.

She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it.

In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees.

Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal.

In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release.

And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it.

She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway.

She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did.

Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸

I don’t think you have to be English - and, Anglophile as I am, I am not English - to appreciate this.

One man dragged England back from the brink. One man rescued Thomas Tuchel’s job. One man stopped England fans from going home, empty of heart and pocket. That man was Harry Kane. England are still in this World Cup because of one man. Astonishing footballer. #ENG

[All On The Board @allontheboard]

To pay tribute to Harry Kane saving England’s World Cup dream we have decided to change Canary Wharf station to KANEary Wharf station. Come on England.

ANDY MADLEY: "Okay lads, so what's happened there is that Kudus has kicked Van De Ven twice and then slapped him in the face. Then he's gone and slapped another Spurs player in the face too. I'm thinking... yellow card."

VAR: "Errrrr..."

[Paddy Power @paddypower]

Love these new rules where you can deliberately kick an opponent twice, slap them in the face and then slap another opponent in the face and it's only a yellow card
