On Monday July 28, while on a day off from the Warped Tour, Reel Big Fish trombonist Dan Regan was spending time with a fan, hanging out along an aqueduct in Danbury, Conn. The fan tripped, lost his balance and tumbled 20 feet down| into the aqueduct, landing flat on his back. Seeing that the kid was unable to move, Regan quickly ran to the band's tour bus, grabbed a cellular phone, tossed it to a passer-by and asked them to call 911 since he wasn't familiar with the area.

Regan then jumped down 20 feet into the aqueduct and sat with the fan until paramedics arrived to take him to the hospital. At press time, JAMTV was still unsure of the boy's status, but we wish him all the best.
