One would think the act of crowd surfing at a concert would be reserved for people who have had a little too much to drink.
But apparently… that’s changing?
During Flo Rida’s set at CelebrateErie festival in Pennsylvania this past weekend, a parent sent their baby through the crowd and over to Flo Rida, who was performing onstage.
After briefly crowd-surfing, the infant ended up in Flo Rida’s arms where he held and danced with the baby while performing his 2007 hit ‘Low.’ Flo Rida, 43, even gave the baby an opportunity to sing with him, holding the mic up to their mouth.
Obviously this video went viral, and as you can imagine, some people are outraged.

One person commented, “Our generation is just filled with terrible parents… Why bring a child to a concert?“
Another user wrote, “letting all those strangers touch your baby is wild.”
It’s also pretty wild to assume everyone is going to handle your baby with care. What if one of them dropped your baby? That’s a risk I wouldn’t be willing to take… especially for Flo Rida! No shade to the man, but I’m not risking my baby’s life for a moment onstage with Flo Rida.
Beyonce? Maybe. But not Flo Rida.
