<p>Kevin Costner thanked the fans after his hit Paramount Network show &#8220;Yellowstone&#8221; finally scored its first major award at the 80th Golden Globes Tuesday as he explained missing the ceremony due to flooding in southern California.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kevin-costner">67-year-old</a> actor won the best actor in a drama series award for his role as John Dutton but was not at the venue to accept it. Costner said he had been advised to &#8220;shelter in place&#8221; in Santa Barbara rather than make the roughly 90-mile drive to Beverly Hills.</p>
<p>&#8220;Thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press and [Golden Globes] for this tremendous honor and to the [Yellowstone] team for bringing John Dutton&#8217;s world to life. I share this recognition with my castmates, the producers, and our incredible crew,&#8221; Costner tweeted to his hundreds of thousands of followers.</p>

<p>Before the annual awards show kicked off, Costner posted a video on Twitter explaining that neither he nor his wife, Christine Baumgartner, would attend the show because the freeway had been &#8220;flooded out.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Hi everyone. Look, I&#8217;m so sorry for everyone who might have been tuning in to watch the Golden Globes,&#8221; Costner explained.</p>
<p>&#8220;Yesterday we had to pull the kids out of school in Santa Barbara,&#8221; the actor added. &#8220;This is the second time in five years that the freeway has flooded out, we found ourselves on the wrong side of the town and we couldn&#8217;t get back last night.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m just so sorry that I can&#8217;t be there,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kevin-costner-says-he-doesnt-care-if-people-like-him-or-not-due-to-his-politics-answers-whether-hed-ever-run">Costner</a> continued. &#8220;I really wanted to, I know how bad Chris wanted to support me. She went out and bought me some gold and yellow and black and silver balloons so we&#8217;re going to sit at the television and see what happens. Thank you for your support.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/yellowstone-receives-zero-emmy-nominations-while-woke-shows-get-multiple-nods">Yellowstone</a>&#8221; had been nominated for a handful of awards since the show debuted in 2018, but Costner&#8217;s Golden Globe was the first major one the show scored, <a href="https://www.tvinsider.com/1076577/golden-globes-2023-kevin-costner-winner-best-actor-drama-yellowstone/">TV insider</a> noted.
