Scotty McCreery Takes a Hard Fall Onstage but Recovers Gracefully
**Scotty McCreery Laughs Off Onstage Fall, Shares Video with Fans**
Scotty McCreery turned an unexpected onstage mishap into a lighthearted moment.
During a recent concert in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, the country star took a misstep, tumbling backward over a speaker. The Grand Ole Opry member shared a clip of the fall on social media Tuesday (March 25), showing how he landed mostly on his “behind” but also caught himself with his wrist.
Fortunately, McCreery bounced back quickly, standing up with ease and keeping the show rolling. He even joked with the crowd, asking, “Who put that there?”
McCreery continued to joke about the experience when he uploaded the video. Text over the clip reads:
The Stage: 1
Me: 0
The clip also shows McCreery talking to his band backstage after he fell. He remarked that he landed “Right on [his] wrist.”
“I haven’t done that in a minute,” he said.
One of his band members joked, “Well if you weren’t hurting before, you are now.”
The person behind the camera spoke to several of McCreery’s bandmates, who all said his fall was the “highlight” of the show. Of course, they were relieved he wasn’t seriously hurt.
