Scotty Display

Fans can view a few of country singer Scotty McCreery's personal possessions in a new display case at the N.C. Museum of History in Raleigh. The case features the black leather jacket, jeans, T-shirt and cross necklace that McCreery wore during his final duet on "American Idol," the lyrics sheet for the song "Live Like You Were Dying," a gold record and his mother's backstage pass. Born in Garner, McCreery was the youngest male contestant to win "American Idol." Now a student at North Carolina State University, he continues to perform. The display is up through Jan. 4, 2013.
