Garth Brooks Is The Ultimate Class Act, Serenades Cancer Patient In The Middle Of His Concert

Country music legend Garth Brooks is currently on his world tour with wife Trisha Yearwood, and country music fans all over the nation are going nuts for it.

Fans going crazy for Garth is nothing new, but what happened the other night at his concert in Minneapolis was pretty damn remarkable. In the stands was a fan holding up a sign that read ‘Chemo this morning, Garth tonight. Enjoy the dance.’

Well, when Garth began to play fan favorite ‘The Dance’ whoever was running the jumbotron cameras found that sign and put it up on the big screen. Before the fan knew what was happening she was being whisked away to the front of the stage to be serenaded by Garth, a man who’s lost his mother and sister to cancer.

ALL. THE. FEELS.

From Kare11 news:

A moment from Friday’s Garth Brooks concert in Minneapolis has gone viral after the singer stopped mid-performance to honor a fan battling cancer.

During the song “The Dance,” Teresa Shaw, who traveled from Iowa to see the show, held up a sign that read “Chemo this morning, Garth tonight. Enjoy the dance.”

“The next thing I knew, another usher was coming up to me and were like, ‘follow us,'” said Shaw. “And they took me to the very front, right in front of him.”

Brooks noticed Shaw, walked over and began singing to her. He then handed her his guitar, kissed her forehead, took her sign and held it up and said, “you have all my strength, you have everybody’s strength in here, and you go kick cancer’s ass!”

Shaw has been fighting stage three breast cancer since June.

“I found my breast cancer on a self-exam. It didn’t show up on a mammogram, and it was over two inches,” she said

Shaw and her 19-year-old daughter Elizabeth travelled to Target Center Friday for a much needed treat from treatment.

They made the sign in their hotel room with glitter covering the floor in the process.

“I was just hoping he would see it and maybe if I could get him to get it signed,” said Shaw.

Brooks’ mother and sister both died from cancer.

Nothing scripted here, no ulterior motives. Just a man who’s dealt with the blow of cancer in his life over and over reaching out to a fan who could use a little support.

I was already a massive Garth fan before watching this video and reading up on the story, but after seeing this I’ll be damned if he’s not the best thing there is in country music, if not all of music.

And because I know that song is now stuck in your head after watching that video, here it is not filmed from an iPhone:
