Dang, the Kaw Valley Rodeo got shafted on Rodeo of the Year.

The nominees for the 57th Academy of Country Music Awards have been announced, with Chris Young leading the way with seven nods. That includes Album of the Year and Single of the Year.

Miranda Lambert also hit a benchmark this year, as she picked up her 16th Female Artist of the Year nomination, which ties her with REBA.

Yes, REBA deserves to be in all caps. Always.

The full list is below, and we mean the FULL list. The ACMs will be aired via streaming this year on Amazon Prime Video March 7 in Las Vegas.
