Fans said that they were jealous that they did not get the opportunity to find Denny while they were drunk, while others stated that it was really good of Hamlin to help out this intoxicated individual.

Jealous! I was out drinking and walking around. Why couldn’t this have happened to me?! Instead random dudes were yelling that they loved me.
