It’s Toby Keith’s ‘As Good as I Once Was’ Video!
In addition to this one, director Michael Solomon also directed a number of other hilarious country music videos, including 'Marry for Money' and 'Honky Tonk Badonkadonk' by Trace Adkins. At the 2012 CMA Awards, he and Toby Keith scored their second Video of the Year award, this time for the 'Red Solo Cup' video. Keith has almost exclusively gone to Solomon for clip help in recent years.
Later in Keith's 'As Good as I Once Was' video, the singer is carried out of a bar on a stretcher after getting into a fight with a man much, much bigger than he is. It turns out he isn't quite as good as he once was, but it all makes for one crazy music video.
