Tim McGraw doesn’t need security – he can take care of himself, play a couple instruments, sing a song, and haul an unruly fan on stage and kick him out all without missing a beat. McGraw was performing in Auburn, Washington on Tuesday when he saw a male audience member attack a female. Without missing a beat, McGraw somehow managed to haul the large gentleman on stage and kick him out. And still sing his song. Damn.
If Tim McGraw isn’t looking for trouble, it must’ve been looking for him. Fan video shot Tuesday in Auburn, Wash., shows the country singer help eject an unruly fan.
McGraw shouts “Get rid of this guy,” summons security and helps arriving crew members haul him onstage. When the heavyset fan moves toward McGraw, the singer threatens him with a cocked fist as he’s hauled away.
The band’s performance of “Indian Outlaw” never stopped. And as if on cue, McGraw steps to the mic and picks up with the line “I ain’t lookin’ for trouble … .”
A statement from McGraw’s representative says he witnessed the man rush up and attack a female, and he intervened when security couldn’t respond quickly enough.

I’m not one for country music, but damn, that was impressive. I’m seeing the whole genre in a new light now. McGraw must have really learned how to take care of business after that female fan grabbed his balls and wife Faith Hill had to set the woman straight. I’m told nothing will teach a guy how to respond quickly better than having something like that happen.
And there’s video! I now find Tim McGraw remarkably attractive. Header photo of Faith Hill and Tim McGraw leaving the Oscar party held at a Mansion in February. Images thanks to WENN.

Like my grandfather used to say, “chivalry ain’t dead, it just went South for the winter.”

I also find him enormously attractive, JayBird. Especially when he wears a wife beater and sings and gets just a little sweaty. And I love the chivalry. Living in an era where teenage boys will push an old woman (me!) aside to get on the bus first, I adore men with manners.

Syko: If ever there was a context to find a better term than “wife beater” this is it! Any ideas for a better name for those undershirts?

He is just sexy. Start to finish all man all sexy

@ Trillion – perhaps we could use “sex shirt” or barring something creative (and after 7 hours so far of dealing with lawyers and stupid clients, I am far from creative at the moment) – maybe “tank top”?

Local radio dj’s here in Seattle think it was staged.

Good for Tim. And while that makes me like him more, personally, I have got to say that he has not aged well. He used to be so hot (with his cowboy hat on, anyway), but not so any longer. And I’m assuming that’s a toupee he’s wearing.

It doesn’t look staged, esp. the part where he cocks his fist back. He was getting ready to walk away right before that… country music is big around here and I listen to it by proxy. I might try to actually enjoy it now.
Try not to have celebrity crushes on married men, but I take exception w/ Tim McGraw.

My fiance wears the garments-formerly-known-as-wife-beaters all the time. He usually just calls ‘em undershirts. Tank top just sounds wierd, I mean, I wear tank tops & I don’t think Mick would fit into them

Ummm, he was a lot balder the last time I saw him, no? Ditch the toupee, Tim! Embrace your sexy baldness!!

I can’t believe Faith Hill got that mad over a fan grabbing his family jewels. He is a star and musician, stuff like that is bound to happen. She should have been flattered.

Steph, he may be a famous musician, but he is still a human. I doubt you would like it if some woman came up and grabbed your boyfriend’s/husband’s crotch. It’s called respect, something people who think it was okay obviously lack.
