Jerk in section 421

iamica

:wtf:

Reminds me of the drunk dude that kept trying to start fights with people at Ed's solo show in Chicago a couple of years ago. It would be crazy if it was the same guy...

what a jerk, this kind of behaviour reminds of those latecomers at any show in my country, who doesn't care about anything or anyone but themselves, and push and elbow their way to the front of the stage, being disrespectful towards the ones who arrived early, and not caring about safety, even their own...

I wasn't there, but honestly, wtf?

yes, my friend sent me an angry text about getting 'splashed' by the person behind her relieving himself in the stands. There are other details about the incident, but I will let her share those if she wants to.

Savages I say...SAVAGES!

Well the guy was from Southie(South Boston) so with any hope he had to spend the weekend in jail, getting arraigned today, and has to try and fly back....can only hope his weekend was ruined like that!

At least the douches in London waited until the last song to pull their shit... They were seated behind us but decided to stand up on their seats and block the view of the couple behind them. When the couple behind them complained they turned around and basically started shoving the guy around. Security gave said douches a pass after they got off their chairs but these two started having words with the couple behind them and they were promptly escorted out of the building. We saw them outside of the Bud Gardens after the show and they were bragging to their buddies about being kicked out of the show.

Way to go Ass-Clowns.

what a shame, this absolutely sucks.

Yes he got arrested and will likely get a slap on the balls for his troubles, but what is so sad is nothing can make good on this guys ruined night - a night he probably looked forward for for months and months.

Arresting him was too good for him, its a shame he didn't get more than he bargained for.

Punching someone and then running away? unreal.

And the dude pissing on people? JUST WOW. is that for real? like seriously?

I was glad i couldn't go to Chicago (i had a great reason). Now i'm REALLY glad we didn't go.
i'm sure there were more good people than bad but it seems like every story is more frat boy than usual. Rain, merch nightmares, no security, idiots everywhere. We'll try to hit a normal show if they tour next summer.

Sad, but true. What an a-hole.

I heard a lot of people complaining about doucheyness - and these 2 stories were beyond disgusting. I was lucky to be surrounded by cool people for the most part.
I am a smoker and not a drinker - i am glad no one complained about my cigarette smoke - i try to blow it up in the air (that's what she said) but i don't complain about hearing them say the same thing 5 times in a row or getting a little beer spilled on my foot so i think its all relative.

Sorry to hear this poor guys show got ruined be ause of some asshole. I was in section R and some guy behind me tried to pick a fight with me. They didn't even belong in those seats but moved there after the rain break. He was drunk and kept pushing his chair into mine because he was trying to make out with his girlfriend who only kept saying how hot Eddie was. They didnt know any songs and didn't have bracelets so they didn't belong there. I asked them nicely several times to please stop elbowing and hitting me with the seat. I am a 5'5" 50+ female and he was a younger 6' male. The last time I got elbowed in the head I asked him to please be careful and he started harassing me and calling me an f'n bitch and saying he was going to f' me up. I finally had enough and went and stood on the outer area of the field seats to watch the rest of the show. I didnt want to ruin anyone elses show so i didnt tell the guys sitting next to me he had threatened me. I will never again go to a stadium show. Almost ruined my whole evening.

I was in 421, directly in front of the fight but two rows up. It was ridiculous and the guy who punched the other guy is totally to blame but the guy who got punched also did absolutely nothing to calm the situation down.

The guy who threw the punch was probably in his late 20s, hispanic, in shape guy and the guy who got punched was probably in his late 40s, looked like someones Dad...he had told the hispanic guy to stop smoking multiple times, (there were people smoking all around us and smoking more than cigarettes so I'm unclear as to why he too such offense to this particular fan) but once the obviously drunk hispanic guy took offense to being repeatedly told to not smoke the older gentleman kept running his mouth and only escalating the situation, cursing at the guy and basically trying to be intimidating to him. I thought it was weird as he just looked like some out of shape Dad that was there with his friends and he did not look like the type to get all testosterone'd out and run his mouth at a confrontation.

Now, the guy DID NOT deserve to get punched in no way, shape or form. But he also completely mishandled the situation and should have, being the older, wiser gentleman simply walked away or at the very least attempted to calm the hispanic guy down instead of antagonizing him.

It was a highly shitty situation as the folks right behind us who we'd made friends with from Philly and STL had to get blood cleaned off their seats.

Long story short though...shitty situation and I hope that dude went to jail.

I'm about to the point in my life where I'd like a PPV option to see live concerts from my couch! :fp:

yep. i'm happy for people that love GA but i'm buying seats in a company suite or something if i see them play an arena. I'd rather be 200 feet away and comfortable at this point. My GA days are long over.

You really should have notified security or something. Punk ass elitist kids don't need to keep running their mouths and getting away with it.

I'm sorry what should have been a happy memorable night was tarnished by some idiot.

I don't think I could have handled that...especially some dickhead talking like that to a woman. It makes my blood boil just thinking about it. I would have welcomed an ass kicking from some young punk, before I let him get away with talking to a woman like that. :-x

Was walking up the ramp, told my friend to cover his beer because Wrigley was leaking (rain + old stadium, assumed it was bad drainage). At the top of the ramp I saw a bunch of people looking behind me in disgust, turned around to see that it was a dude pissing. Wished others warned people walking up the ramp, but luckily no one was splashed. Shameful shit.

At least some guy with laser-like aim was handed a beer and tossed it square in the sack.

Is it not illegal to smoke in public within the confines of Chicago? I know it's a concert and stuff happens, but it seems like there were a ton of people smoking like it was a Canadian show.
