Tim McGraw = Good Guy

In addition to being my wife's favorite singer and a Florida State Seminole fan Tim McGraw is apparently a good guy as well. It seems on Tuesday night during his concert in Seattle he helped save a female fan from being attacked by some guy. He was onstage and saw the attack happening. He realizes that security doesn't see it so he acted and helps his road crew pull the guy up onstage. Then (and this is great) "When the heavyset fan moves toward McGraw, the singer threatens him with a cocked fist as he's hauled away." What makes this story even better is that they never quit singing the song they were performing. Ironically the next line of the song was "I ain't lookin' for trouble ..."
You go Tim, you get my good guy hero award today... Hey I wouldn't mess with him. Would you?

I saw this on the news today and was thrilled to see a celebrity be a "stand-up" guy!

I would mess with him in a carnal way but I like Faith too much too.

He's a great guy and a hell of an actor as well.

what was the football movie where he played the crappy Dad? Friday Night Lights? he did such a great job.

He's married to Faith Hill so he's already an awesome dude. I'm gonna go find video of this.

There is video on charlotte.com of this. I can't view it because I am here at work but I am going to check it out as soon as I get home.

I love Tim. I have been a fan of his since day one. He is one of those celebs who is really normal even if he's married to a hottie like Faith.

There's VIDEO? Awesome! I'm glad this guy gets to be embarrassed on the internet forever, and ditto on the yea Tim!!!

I'm no country music fan, but I AM a fan of ANY stand up kinda guy. That's fantastic.

No doubt the guy is talented, good looking and comes across as "the good guy" After watching the video a few times, I'm convinced it was a set up. The guy willingly let himself be pulled up on that stage. Why would he do that, look at the size of him.
All for good show I say!
I'm not saying, Tim's not a good guy, he wouldn't be where he is now if he wasn't but he's also a showman and the timing friends, is just too much of a coincidence.

Mic you think it's a fake?? I haven't seen it yet. I will have to take a look when I get home.

Ken said...

Lets not call it, fake, just looked a little staged to me.
You know show buisness and hollywood, they can air brush anything.

Doc said...

I looked at it last night an I don't think it was staged... I am sticking with the "good guy" thing.
