Over the weekend, Zach Top played at the Auburn Rodeo along with Maggie Antone, Gabriella Rose, and headliners The Red Clay Strays. By all accounts, the fans got exactly what they expected from the lineup–an evening of good times and great tunes. However, one fan got more than she could have hoped for from the evening and is now looking for the guys who made it happen to show her appreciation.

Standing room only shows, like the Auburn Rodeo, can be tough for everyone. However, they’re even more challenging for those with disabilities. For people who use a wheelchair, like TikTok user Christen (@chris10wig), it can be incredibly hard to see the stage. That didn’t stop her from attending the show, though. A group of guys apparently saw how much she was enjoying the music and helped her get a better view of the stage. They lifted her up, chair and all, so she could get a clear view of Top singing “Lonely for Long.” Watch the touching video here.

Top was in the middle of the song, so he couldn’t stop and point out the heartwarming show of solidarity. However, it didn’t go completely unnoticed. The video shows him giving her a big smile and a small wave to let her know she’d been seen.

Christen posted the video on to her TikTok page with a request. “Y’all help me find these guys!! TikTok please do your thing!” she wrote in the caption. The app is full of internet sleuths. So, it likely won’t be long before she knows the identities of the guys who helped elevate her and her evening.
People flocked to the comments with praise for the men and heartfelt reactions to the video.
One TikTok user was at the show and watched the moment unfold. “We cheered you on so loud when you went up!! Sooo glad Auburn Rodeo was a good experience for you,” they wrote.
“I’m not crying over a simple cute video at all,” another wrote, “This is what the world needs more of–men like them,” they added. The original poster took replied to the comment saying, “I couldn’t agree more. It was the sweetest thing. They are awesome!”
