This day in music history.

June 3, 2000, During a music festival in Buffalo, NY Kenny Chesney asks the daughter of a mounted policeman if he can sit on the policeman's horse. After receiving permission and mounting the animal Chesney rode off. Other officers at the scene thought the horse was being stolen and while attempting to pull Chesney from the horse they are attacked by Tim McGraw. McGraw who was yelling "Get your hands off him"! knocks one cop to the ground before getting him in a headlock. After letting the first cop go Mcgraw went after another officer at which point the first officer struck him with his night stick the singer's manager was shouting, "That's Tim McGraw. He's a star." An officer at the scene testified, "I said, 'Calm down, calm down. If there's some type of misunderstanding, we'll work it out." He said that McGraw shot back, "You're fucking right there's a misunderstanding." The pair are arrested on four counts of disturbing the peace and resisting arrest. One day earlier Tim McGraw had been named "Father Of The Year" by the Country Music Association.
