Zach Bryan Fan Runs Onstage to Meet Him Mid-Set [Watch]

One fan who came to see Zach Bryan in New Orleans, La. just couldn't wait to see the singer during a meet and greet or during his walk-off after the show: He hopped right on stage to meet the star in the middle of a set.

Fan-captured video shows how it all went down, while Bryan was playing a stop on his The Quittin' Time Tour at New Orleans' Caesars Superdome.

The moment clearly caught Bryan by surprise, and he took a step back as he saw a stranger running toward him. Once he realized it was a fan trying to say hello, though, the singer was gracious about it: He removed his in-ear monitors and reached out his hand for a handshake.

After a brief meeting, someone in Bryan's band stepped forward to escort the concertgoer offstage. On his way out, the fan raised his arms in triumph, and the crowd roared their approval.

"I got no f--kin' idea who that one was," the singer said with a chuckle as he returned to the mic.

"Don't sneak on this stage, man," Bryan continued, but admitted, "That kid's a legend for doing it."

A fan rushing the stage might be a first for Bryan on The Quittin' Time Tour, but he's had a number of other fun fan interactions during this run. At a Boston show, the singer had another fan pass a baby to him while he was walking up to the stage, and he posed for a photo with the infant. A few weeks later, he returned to Boston -- and met that same baby for a second time.

Bryan's tour is scheduled to continue into mid-December.
