Jack Ingram Charters Private Jet To Get To Concert

Jack Ingram’s 4th of July weekend performance in Aberdeen, South Dakota, almost didn’t happen due to Hurricane Alex. Jack was on a delayed flight connecting through Houston on July 2nd. Because of impending weather issues, flights were grounded and all flights later in the day were oversold. So Jack made some calls and found a private jet. But the plane was an hour away. Jack said he “ran down to the rental car counter (and) jumped into whatever car they had on-hand.” He said it was “insane all the way there. Water was rising on the streets and the road that led me to the charter jet had water knee high. I was hoping that the engine wasn’t going to give out on me as I drove through the water. Luckily, I made it to the small plane, boarded as the lone passenger, asked them to take off immediately, and arrived in sunny South Dakota in just enough time to hit the stage.”
