Hank Williams Jr., Dean Dillon and Marty Stuart were inducted during as the Country Music Hall of Fame's class of 2020.

"The good thing is, this didn't happen yesterday," Williams began during his Nov. 21 speech, "which was the opening day of deer season. Which is kind of like squirrel season was with my father," his father being country music pioneer and Country Music Hall of Famer Hank Williams.

"My little 6-year-old grandson sitting out there with his .44 Magnum Ruger, took his first deer," Willams revealed during his speech, smiling and pausing to allow the crowd to show its appreciation for the moment.

At this point — 40 seconds into the speech — Williams was more than one-third finished. While fellow Country Music Hall of Fame inductee Marty Stuart spread his remarks over 13 minutes and Dean Dillon spoke for eight, Bocephus wrapped up in a tidy 1:48.
