One would assume the biggest hazards faced at a Gallagher performance are getting a projectile melon seed to the eye, or perhaps hearing the aging prop comic get all creepy and right wing. But now a Hillsboro woman found out the hard way that Gallagher shows can be a downright dangerous place to be.

Remnants of creamed corn, honey, fruit, creamed marshmallows and sauerkraut, among other food items, were strewn about the stage area when the woman tried to reach it, she said.

Oh, oh, did she make it?

“She was determined to get up there, and she didn’t make it,” said Perkins-Hagele, who was at the show.

The woman, who Perkins-Hagele said appeared to be an excited fan, advanced toward the DeMar Batchelor Amphitheater stage despite several warnings from the comedian not to do so. She fell near the stage toward the end of the show, Perkins-Hagele said.

Wait, who the hell storms the stage for Gallagher? Since when did the melon man become Morrissey?

After awarding her a Darwin Award, paramedics took the wounded fan to the hospital but her injuries don’t appear to be too serious. Just a warning, if you think his shows are dangerous, don’t you dare see Metallagher in concert.

Thanks to Scott Moore, Gallagher superfan #1, for the tip.

  1. So are we going to protest and commit civil disobedience to bring Gallagher shows to and end, then taunt future generations with how clever and capable we were to have done do.

  2. Hillsboro? Gallagher? right-wing?

    We just need to drop massive amounts of agent orange on anyone who voluntarily thinks a night w/ Gallagher is fun or go bill ayers on their asses

  3. Those who survive their idiocy are ineligible for the Darwin Award. That prestigious honor, by definition, is bestowed only upon those who have done humankind the service of removing themselves from the gene pool by dying, thus sparing future generations the risk of becoming collateral casualties of their destructively stupid progeny.

  4. Gallagher is like an unfunny Glenn Beck now. He will go on for minutes on how homosexuals shouldn’t be allowed to be married, Islam is out to take “yer freedoms’ and general insano talk.
