Despite Countrywide Celebrations on 4th of July, Kevin Nash Was Left Reminiscing in His Room for a Heartbreaking Reason: “I Didn’t Want to Watch Some Armed Forces Band Play..”

Kevin Nash and his wife went through every parent’s worst nightmare on October 20, 2022. Tristen, their 26-year-old son, died tragically as a result of a cardiac arrest. His death shattered Kevin Nash’s heart and filled it with deep sorrow. Nash hasn’t been the same since. Although Nash has accepted his new reality, he chokes up frequently while talking about his son. 

During a recent interview, Kevin Nash relayed that he did not enjoy the 4th of July. In fact, he never enjoyed the occasion in the past. The 4th of July served as a poignant reminder of Tristen’s aversion to fireworks.

Kevin Nash says he hates the 4th of July due to the fireworks

While the entire United States of America celebrated its Independence Day, Kevin Nash spent the day remembering how Tristen despised the 4th of July because it was too loud. Speaking on the Kliq This podcast, Nash revealed that his son was autistic. Hence, he was sensitive to the blaring noise of the fireworks. 

According to Nash, Tristen would throw his headphones on the entire night as the fireworks went on until four in the morning. He said, “My son hated the 4th of July because he was autistic. That loud noise was, man, that was just, it was not a good day for him. And they you know, they go to four in the morning.”

He continued, “He’d have his headphones on and just but you know I just you only wear headphones so long, you know then these idiots start at four in the afternoon so you know, I just was reminiscing and missing my son.”

Nash went on to say that the 4th of July fireworks never captivated him. Although his wife and the rest of the family went up on the roof to enjoy the sight of the fireworks, he remained downstairs. He further stated that watching the “Armed Forces band play the Grand Old Flag” while lighting up the New York sky does not fascinate him. 

“I didn’t want to definitely didn’t want to watch some Armed Forces band play uh it’s a Grand Old Flag while they shot fireworks over New York skyline.” Nash added.

Nonetheless, as the months pass, Nash comes to terms with the fact that his son is no longer with him. Earlier this year, fans were solicitous about his well-being as a grief-stricken Nash hinted at feeling suicidal.
