"Who was it? Does anybody know?" he continued as he walked across the stage to retrieve the item, adding, "Don't throw s**t at concerts, huh?"

Visibly frustrated, the 'Pink Skies' actor then suggested the crowd help identify the individual.

"And if you guys do know who threw it, we can get 'em out of here," he stated.

This is not the first time Zach Bryan has dealt with disruptive behavior from concertgoers.

In May 2023, the 28-year-old singer asked security to remove a woman who attempted to grab his guitar while he was performing among the audience.

At the time, Bryan addressed the incident on X (formerly Twitter), writing, "I don’t mind people being respectful and trying to touch me or the guitar."

"But if you try to rip it out of my hands, I promise I’ll rip you out of whatever venue we’re at, respectfully, of course," he added.

He has since deleted his X account.

Year of personal challenges for Zach Bryan

Zach Bryan has been making headlines beyond his performances.

Speaking about the aftermath of her relationship with the country singer, LaPaglia later explained that Bryan's team approached her with an offer.

“After everything was done, I was approached by (Bryan’s) team and I was offered a lot of money, a big lump sum of money, and a few options,” she revealed.

Despite personal challenges, Bryan continues to perform at packed venues across the country.

Following the Tacoma incident, Bryan is scheduled to on November 25, at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon, as part of his Quittin' Time Tour, according to Fox News.
