Tim McGraw Proves That Chivalry Is Still Alive And Well


Above, Tim McGraw gives the hook to some guy who had enough money to pay for a front-row seat to his show and enough booze in him to think that getting up in the space of a nearby woman was a good idea. In the YouTube comments attached to this clip, there’s a raging debate over whether or not this whole thing was staged for maximizing McGraw’s Google juice (friendly reminder: he’s on tour now!), but I like to think that if it was a play for the cameraphone crowd, McGraw would have given the guy a roundhouse punch or at least a stern on-mic beratement before handing him over to the backstage security detail.

    Cool. I doubt it was staged. Good for Tim! I hate that we're so cynical as a society that we think everything is faked: this, Tiger's knee injury, etc.

    Looks real to me.


    That being said, the event transpired during a song that contains the following lyrics...


    They all gather 'round my teepee

    Late at night tryin' to catch a peek at me


    In nothin' but my buffalo briefs


    I got 'em standin' in line


    'Cause I'm an Indian outlaw

    Half Cherokee and Choctaw


    My baby she's a Chippewa


    She's one of a kind


    Cherokee people

    Cherokee tribe


    So proud to live


    So proud to die


    I'm sure they're proud of that little ditty, too.
