Fans Think This Country Artist May Have Had One Too Many Before His Show

Fans who went to see this artist at the Concert in the Corn festival in Mason, Wisconsin, wondered if he needed a designated driver. 

Fans who went to see Chris Young headline the Concert in the Corn festival in Mason, Wisconsin, wondered if the "Gettin' You Home" singer needed a designated driver.

Yet again, Young has been accused by fans of having one too many before going on stage. We have the details below. 

Did Chris Young Pull a Bailey Zimmerman?

In a TikTok clip of the 41-year-old singer's performance, Young is singing "I'm Comin' Over." It's a little hard to hear over the crowd chanting along, but he does seem to be struggling. 

The caption read, "Maybe he was just super tired but everything at the beginning of the song was late, and he even said 'If I forget the lyrics to my own song, just pretend that I pointed at you to sing.'"

The text overlay isn't as sympathetic. It reads, "Guys, Chris Young pulled a Bailey Zimmerman and got a little too drunk."

There's no way to know Young's BAC during the show. But the internet being what it is, the comment section wasn't giving the singer any slack. 

One user wrote, "Sad.... The dudes been needing help for a long time."

Another added, "Might be time for him to check into rehab. Genuine concern. Don't want to see anyone struggle."

"Seems like he does this often. Reason I didn't go see him a couple of weeks ago at the fair," shared another.

One comment read, "He's just not good in concert... whether that's because he's drunk or not, I don't know."

This Isn't An Isolated Incident

Last year, someone recorded Young struggling through his set at Tucson's Boots In the Ground festival. And yep, it was the same song, too. 

While some were quick to suggest the singer may have been imbibing too freely, others pointed out that the problem may have been with the guy behind the soundboard. 

"I think it's his ears that he hears himself back on," one user wrote at the time. "His PA man probably stinks."

Maybe it's time for Young to hire a new sound guy? Let us know in the comments.
