Ritter Halts Show for Fan Emergency
14 Dec
Summary
- Frontman Tyson Ritter stopped the band mid-song to aid a collapsed fan.
- Ritter humorously suggested fans offer the woman Twinkies or sugar.
- The incident became a memorable moment at the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas.

During KROQ's Almost Acoustic Christmas concert, a medical emergency briefly paused the All-American Rejects' set. Lead singer Tyson Ritter stopped the band mid-performance when a fan collapsed in the audience.
Ritter immediately alerted security and addressed the crowd, asking for space to help the fan. With a touch of humor, he suggested someone find the woman "Twinkies or sugar or Christmas gumdrops" to aid her recovery.
After ensuring the fan was attended to and safely removed from the throng, Ritter and the band triumphantly returned to their song, finishing the performance. This act of quick thinking and care became a notable moment of the night.
