Poor Jake Owen! He’s gone and gotten himself injured again.
You may remember a few years ago when Owen was riding a go-kart and crushed one of his fingers, leading to a partial amputation. Luckily, this particular injury isn’t quite as drastic, but it did cause Owen to take a little trip to the Emergency Room today following a bike accident.
This morning, the “American Country Love Song” singer tweeted to fans that he had been in an accident and was ER-bound.
Supposed to be headed towards Herrin, IL for show, instead headed for Emergency Room… I'll make Herrin.. No worries. Show must go on

A few hours later, Owen was stitched up and promising ticket-holding fans that he would, indeed, be taking the Illinois stage.
All good, and on the road to Herrin, IL… Some stiches and I'm back at it.. See y'all tonight. #iwreckedmybike

Oh, and for those who have somewhat strong stomachs, he also provided picture proof of his adventure.
After stitches… Sometimes in life, you fall. That's when you get back up again, and walk it off. pic.twitter.com/ulSAvvLsbm
