bang123A Country-Sized Good Deed
Shelton didn’t hesitate.
He hooked up a tow line, pulled Roho’s truck out of the rising water, and drove the soaked, shaken man back to his home several miles away, chatting the whole way.
“He looked like a normal guy. Big fella. Nice as they come,” Roho said. “I told him, ‘You better slow down or my wife’s not gonna believe this.’”
Sure enough, when they pulled into the driveway, Roho’s wife came out in disbelief.
“I said, ‘Honey, slick up — Blake Shelton’s bringing me home.’ She about dropped the phone.”
“We Hit It Off Real Good”
Roho and Blake ended up talking about hunting, trucks, and Texas weather during the impromptu ride.
“I gave him my business card,” Roho said proudly. “Didn’t get his number, but maybe you folks can help me find him on that… Face-what? Facebook?”
Though Shelton didn’t comment publicly, those close to him say this wasn’t for show — just Blake being Blake.
“He’s out here in boots and jeans doing what needs to be done,” one relief volunteer said. “No team. No camera. Just heart.”
A Pattern of Quiet Heroism
This isn’t the first time Blake Shelton has stepped up when disaster hits. Back in 2015, he rescued a stranded man in Ardmore, Oklahoma, during flooding from Tropical Storm Bill — towing his truck and driving him home, much like he did this week in Texas.
And just days ago, Shelton was also spotted in Kerrville, distributing relief supplies and singing for families who’d lost their homes in the devastating July 4th floods that have claimed more than 100 lives across Texas.
He’s got gold records and sold-out tours — but what Blake Shelton keeps proving, time and time again, is that you don’t need a stage to show people who you really are.
Sometimes all it takes is a truck, a tow strap, and the heart to stop when someone’s in trouble.
And for one grateful Texan this week, Blake Shelton was more than a star — he was a lifeline.
