Zach Top may be a brilliant country singer, but he needs a little more time on the saddle. The country singer almost collided with a security guard on horseback after his RodeoHouston performance.

It had been one hell of a night for the Washington singer. A couple of nights ago, Zach Top killed it at his Rodeo Houston concert. It was his first-ever stadium show, but you wouldn't think it. He was immensely grateful for the night, and social media was bubbling with excitement and praise the next day.
As it was a RodeoHouston concert, however, the singer didn't just exit stage left. Zach Top hopped on the back of a horse to ride around the rodeo for a final send-off to his fans. In the high of the moment, it appeared that he didn't notice the security guard his horse was approaching.
With one hand on the reigns and another waving his hat in the air, he lost sight of where exactly he was going. Thankfully, the security guard made a quick step out of the way as the horse powered past.
