Bert Kreischer’s tour bus starts on fire in Minnesota after a show in Fargo Saturday night

FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) — Stand-up comic Bert Kreischer spent some time along the interstate in Minnesota after leaving his concert stop in Fargo on Saturday night.

In an Instagram post, he revealed that his tour bus blew a tire just after midnight.

He says they were watching “Dr. No” on television at the time.

Kreischer says they were then trying to figure out if they should get a hotel and wait it out until the tire was fixed so they could continue on to the next tour stop in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on Sunday night.

He later told PEOPLE that they eventually decided to leave the bus and split into their other two crew buses while the tire was fixed.

After the bus was fixed and around 11 a.m. and still in Minnesota, the driver heard a pop coming from the roof and it started filling with smoke.

He was the only person onboard and was able to get off the bus safely before it all went up in flames.

Kreischer posting on Instagram, “We are all safe but my bus is gone – God works in mysterious ways.”

He lost many belongings in the fire including his wardrobe.

In another Instagram Stories post before his show in Cedar Rapids, Kreischer was seen outside a Dick’s Sporting Goods store to buy new clothes.

Back in 2022 while on tour in North Dakota, his bus became stuck in snow during a blizzard in Bismarck.
