Jason Aldean was forced to cancel a show over the weekend on Sunday (9/1) at The Gulf Coast Jam in Panama City Beach, Florida due to a bout with the stomach flu.

Jason posted to social media Sunday morning, "I was really hoping I’d be able to play tonight at @GulfCoastJam, but unfortunately I’m down for the count with a stomach virus. It’s just not in the cards for us this year. Hope to be back as soon as I can. Thank you to everyone who came out."

His wife Brittany was the first to respond to the post saying, "It’s been two solid days of (sick) in our household... and props to u, babe for trying to pull yourself together. I couldn’t even make it out of bed.. you’re stronger than me."
