It's one thing for fans to get rowdy at a concert, but it's another thing for violence to be involved. Jason Aldean fans this weekend were baffled after a group of women who attended his concert in Star Lake were viciously attacked after the show. A TikTok user shared her experience, and as we know, when it comes to the internet, word travels pretty fast.

TikTok user @bellaspam91106 posted a video with text asking other fans if they had seen the attack happen. "If you were at the Jason Aldean concert at Star Lake 8/9 and seen a group of grown men jump me and my friends please let me know!" She followed this video up with another, which shows a man violently hitting several women repeatedly, and it's honestly sickening to watch.
Several fans hit the comments with absolute outrage, and honestly, I don't blame them. Many fans were upset that, even though several people were standing around the area where the attacks were happening, it appeared that not one of them attempted to help in any way. "All those men standing around and NOT ONE OF THEM HELPED!" one user commented. "It really shows what type of men they are. That has my blood boiling!"
Other fans expressed similar feelings. "My husband would have been in jail [for fighting back], and I would have gladly bailed him out. What is up with everyone watching????"
The Perpetrator Remains Unidentified, and Fans Aren't Happy
Some fans have questioned the nature of the attack, wondering if it was started for a specific reason. However, there's still no excuse for such behavior from anyone. Bella, one of the fans who was attacked, attempted to provide further context on the situation. She said, "This video started in the middle of the fight. Me and my friends were walking back to our car minding our business and the guy started screaming at us, calling my sister fat, HE swung first, NOT me and my friends."
The man who attacked Bella and her friends hasn't been fully identified yet. The District Attorney's Office is currently investigating the situation. As of now, we know that at least one of the women in the video has gone home with serious injuries, which include broken ribs, a fractured jaw, and a concussion.
One fan put the situation best in another comment. "None of us saw how this started, but hitting a girl like that is not ok. There are ways to handle problems, and there are ways not to. THAT was not the way."
