First it was a crotch-grabbing incident. Now it's a fan-ejection moment. No country artist can have a local concert turn into a national Internet event like Tim McGraw.
During a performance Tuesday night at the White River Amphitheatre in Auburn, Wash., Tim intervened when he believed a woman in the audience was being abused by a fan.
In the middle of "Indian Outlaw," Tim reached into the crowd and started pulling the cowboy-hatted fan up on stage, where members of his entourage then escorted the man to security. The story was first reported, with more than two minutes of accompanying cell phone camera footage. Which you can check out at below.
An official statement from Tim's publicist characterized the booted man as an "overly aggressive fan" who "attacked a female fan."
"Tim called for security," the statement continued, "but when they could not respond quick enough, Tim and several crew members removed the fan from the audience, where he was then turned over to the local authorities."
Don't Mess With BIG BAD TIM!
