It happens to all of us. We’re on the road when all of a sudden we realize something is wrong with our tire. We pull over and quickly realize we have a flat and of course it happens at a time when you really need to be somewhere.

For one woman in Columbia, Tennessee, her flat tire experience was about to turn into something she never expected.

Blown out tire

The Tennesee resident was heading somewhere when she took a curve and her tire blew out! Pulling over, she realized she was in trouble. She had her kids with her and leaving them in the car to change a tire wasn’t an option for her. She was going to have to call someone to help her.

Standing on the side of the road, someone saw her and decided to help.

Southern gentleman

With classic southern kindness, a Tennessee stranger pulled their car over to help the stranded woman change out her tire. Courtney was in luck! Little did she know her luck was about to increase even more than she imagined.

The man who pulled over to help got out of his car and was immediately recognizable.

“When he hopped out, his voice, you automatically knew,” said Potts.

Recognized his face

When the stranger stepped out of his large truck, Courtney knew who he was. In combination with his voice, it was clear to Courtney that this wasn’t some stranger who pulled over to help her, it was Luke Bryan!

If you aren’t a country fan, you might not know Luke, but he’s a big deal!

With a quick call to her stepdad, she explained that her tire was being changed by a country superstar. He was impressed, to say the least! If there is one stereotype about the south that is a good thing, it’s that everyone is especially nice. If this doesn’t prove that, nothing will!

Since the event, her Instagram post has gone viral.
