The Dramatic Incident of 1970

In 1970, the tranquil cabin faced a dramatic turn of events when Willie Nelson returned home to find his beloved retreat engulfed in flames.

In a daring act of bravery, Nelson rushed into the burning structure to rescue his prized guitar, “Trigger,” along with a “pound of weed.”

This harrowing incident not only earned him the infamous nickname “Shotgun Willie” but also inspired the hit song of the same name.
