On the first night at the brand-new Opry House: "They projected a film, of Roy Acuff singing “The Wabash Cannonball” from back in the 40s and they’re showing this on the screen in the new Opry House. And all of a sudden, that screen begins to lift and there’s Roy Acuff singing the same song. It never missed a beat.
