Hey y’all, watch this: Ejected McGraw fan still likes Tim
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Don’t blame it on the beer, says ejected Tim McGraw fan. Photo: Louie Favorite/Staff.
Remember the guy that was tossed out of a Tim McGraw show in Washington earlier this week? Here’s the story. Apparently, he thought McGraw just wanted to dance with him.
CMT.com has an interview with 30-year-old Marcus Nirschl, the ejected fan, about the experience here.
Nirschl tells CMT that he thought McGraw recognized him, “because I’ve been to about six of his shows. I really thought he wanted to pull me onstage for some dancing and stuff.”
Though Nirschl has been described as “drunk” in various places where the video can be found (including here), Nirschl told CMT that he’d only had a couple of beers. But isn’t that what we all say?

Good for you Tim but and Nirschl, shame on you for being drunk, and the sisters ought to give him a break. Yes he pushed them and they shouldnt have pushed him down I would have come up fighting also. It is all a bad thing but get over it. This sort of thing goes on at all events and concerts. Their is always one in a crowd that causes trouble. Bless you Tim for caring about your fans and taken action before it got really out of hand. All should meet and say I’m sorry and move on. Especially the sisters. Sorry for the sisters but they also need to lighten up a bit. I think they are just jealous they werent on Video and talked about.

Nirschl, no hard feelings about the other night. I thought you were after Faith and I was just being protective. Next concert, how about we have a beer together?

jj - My thoughts exactly. I had a similar thing happen at a NASCAR race, but the other party was a bunch of 15 - 18 years old pushing us out of good seats. I had a couple of drinks and I’m a fairly big guy. The cops kept treating me like I was the aggressor even though I was fully cooperative and was in MY seats and the kids were nowhere near theirs. I was attacked and used no more force than necessary to defend myself and my party. If you’re the man, especially if you’ve had a few, you’re going to be treated like the offending party no matter what.

Hey Nirschl, I personally thought you were very attractive and when Tim saw me smile at you is when he got a little jealous. Please keep us as your biggest fan.
Kisses

Does anyone know where I am or where I went? If someone could only find me maybe Tim wouldnt be so angry and insecure and he could stop wearing all those goofy hats.

Tim McWuss is a big man with 3 crew guys and a couple of security behemoths around. I say, put the two of them in a room ALONE. Tim drew back his fist like he was going to pop the guy, while the crew was holding him. Big hero. McGraw is a singer, no more, no less. An ego like McGraw’s is common with so many around to protect it and yes men are a dime a dozen.
