Riley Green Is Grateful For ‘Life Lessons’ From Grandaddy
Riley Green has always been very close to his family back in Alabama. When he was a kid, he spent a lot of time around his grandparents, and he is so thankful for all the basic but important life lessons they taught him.
Riley told us in a recent interview, “My granddaddy made me give him a handshake every time I saw him and made sure I looked him in the eye, and made sure my grip was good and all that. We’d spend time after church talking about how bad the preacher’s handshake was, and how he shook hands like a girl.”
He added, “You know, yes sir, no sir, stuff like that, I mean, I don’t know that it’s gotten completely lost in translation nowadays, but stuff like that goes a long way with people, you know, and I mean, that was definitely something that my grandparents instilled in me and my folks did.”

Green spent the majority of his holiday season outdoors, doing what he loves so much: hunting. One recent hunting trip landed the country singer in the emergency room, and he shared the moment on his Insta Stories.
In the clip, Riley explains to the ER nurse, “I stepped on a nail, impaired my foot.” He recalled, “When I took my boot off, corn fell all over the floor. The lady came in here wanting to know where all the corn came from.”
He said, “You don’t want me to take this [shoe] other one off, either. This is real world problems.”
Green’s friend, who’s with him jokes, “This is terrible, I’m sorry buddy.” The nurse then tells him, “Oh, you can go right back [to] hunting.”
In the next series of Insta posts, Riley is doing some hunting in the snow, he wrote over the video of himself in camo, “Something might be wrong with me at this point.”
In the next slide, he showed his footsteps and walking in the snow. He wrote, “What sore foot?”
