Congratulations to the September Fan of the Month contest winner, Riley from Marion, IN. Read Riley’s story below.

Where are you from? Marion, IN, USA

What was the first Rascal Flatts song you heard? Mayberry

How many years have you been a Rascal Flatts fan? I became a fan when I was 9 years old I’m 19 now.

How many Rascal Flatts shows have you been to? I have been to 3, my mom has been to more. I have Autism and I love going to your shows it’s a special date day with my mom when I go. We are going to try to hit a couple of shows this summer, right now we have tickets to Indy but might go to Michigan and Cincy.

What is the farthest you have travelled for a Rascal Flatts concert? I mostly get to do Indiana shows. But my mom says I’m doing much better with my Autism that we might get to do some out of state shows this year. If I had my driver’s license I would go to a lot more shows!

What’s one thing that sets you apart from other Rascal Flatts fans? Your music has helped me get through my depression and I do music therapy and started playing the guitar my first song I wanted to learn was My Wish. I someday want to learn more songs on my guitar of Rascal Flatts. Your music inspired me to do my best at everything and never give up on life even when you are down. I don’t have a lot of friends because I have trouble with social skills so I listened to my music a lot. Your songs help me process my feelings and make me happy.

Tell us your favorite Rascal Flatts related story: I won a meet and greet on the fan club a few years ago and I ended up in the hospital. I didn’t think I was going to be able to go. But I was able to get out and went straight to the show and met them. They were so nice and I loved every minute of it!

Congratulations go out to Riley, he will be receiving a Rascal Flatts prize pack!
