I dont think so. And I really hope not… All I did during that damn show was park cars and have people yell at me when it was a traffic jam trying to leave… I would just smile and say “thanks for coming and keep supporting the troops”… Assholes what do u think was going to happen when 100’s off people are trying to get out of two exits…

Sorry had to rant about it…
