Tim McGraw Almost in a Fight During His Concert

Tuesday night at White River Amphitheatre, in Auburn Washington Tim McGraw's concert-goers got a little extra show for their ticket price, what they saw was almost a fight.

While in the middle of performing one of his first hits "Indian Outlaw", McGraw approached the microphone, positioned very close to the crowd; McGraw looks down into the crowd right beneath him, where he sees this obnoxious concert-goer fighting a female next to him. McGraw yells at him through the microphone saying, "hold on". Next thing we know he calls out for security to get the man.

Security takes a few seconds to respond, and in the meantime Tim McGraw reaches down into the crowd to stop the man from fleeing. McGraw grabs the man by the strap of his wife beater, then by his hand until security shows up and they hoist the rather large man on the stage. The man stumbles and turns back around in Tim's direction charging the singer, as if to fight, with his fist in the air. McGraw draws his fist back as if to say, not on my stage, idiot!

Both men withdraw their fist from the air as security escorts the fighting drunk man off the stage. A fight on stage is surely not what Tim McGraw would have thought he would have at this concert. Somewhat shaken by fight adrenaline, McGraw does not miss a beat. He grabs the microphone and keeps on singing. The irony here is the very next words in the song just happen to be, "I Ain't Looking for Trouble." Well-done Tim McGraw, thank you for standing up for the ladies!

This shows Tim McGraw will not shy away from a fight on his stage, moreover don't expect to come to his concert and hurt a woman right in front of Tim. Tim is always going to take care of his lady concert-goers. Concert-goers reported the man reeked of alcohol and was obviously drunk.

Here is a link to a video from youtube.com showing a different angle where, if you watch it well, you will see the man raise his fist to Tim McGraw first.

It is quite obvious to anyone who watches the video, this guy wanted to start a fight with Tim McGraw, and was still drunk the next morning, as all that comes out of his mouth, is well, hogwash!!

Here is some concert etiquette:

First, Behave Respectfully, treat everyone like you would like to be treated.

Second, do not push and shove people on the floor to get to the front.

Third, if you drink, limit yourself, even if you have a designated driver.

Fourth, it is not polite to hit people to get them to move.

Fifth, if you happen to make it on stage with Tim McGraw, do not start a fight.
