three people were injured Friday night when panicked audience members "self-evacuated" during a performance of the musical "Hamilton" in San Francisco, police said.
A woman in the audience had a medical emergency during the scene in which the title character, Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, is shot on stage, said Joseph Tomlinson, public information officer for the San Francisco police. Audience members mistakenly thought there was a real-life shooting and rushed the exits, he said. CNN affiliate KPIX reported the someone in the audience shouted, "Gun!"

Oh that wild and crazy Sweeney! LOL!
Reminds me of a football game between Texas and Oklahoma.
Someone in the stands lit off a fire cracker and the Longhorns thought it was half time, so they went to the lockers.
Two plays later, Oklahoma scored.
Im guessing the lawsuits will be filed soon.
Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
I think our next CW will have more 'comical' moments like this than most are expecting. They are all Johnny BadA$$ until something goes BANG!
Imagine an adult purchasing a ticket to this show and being so poorly educated that they dont know Hamilton and Aaron Burr participate in gun violence
Hot Lips: “Oh My God, They Shot Him!”
Blake: “Hot Lips, you incredible nincompoop! It’s the end of the quarter. “
No need to imagine. That’s I am sure is the entire audience!
I bet more than half the cast were unaware.
LOL.
Well, of course they believe everything they saw on that stage ... they already believe that Hamilton etal are people of color.
. An interesting thing just happened on my iPhone. For the first time the three suggestions after I typed President included Trump. Until now, the suggestions were Bush, George and Clinton. Maybe it was because I included the word love.
For a man who was never before his election accused of being fascist, sexist , homophobic or any other ist President Trump has certainly endured a lot of abuse.
“No ... successful experiment. An entire population (the play attending crowd) so sensitive, the unreal triggers a real response.”
Excellent observation, knarf. If we need to wipe a complete marching band of overly sensitive millennials, just scream “GUN!” The result - STAMPEDE!
I remember when the audience spontaneously began singing Amazing Grace. I love President Trump.
The Mandolay Bay shooter was .... well ... we just don't know so .... whatever, case closed.
Brave, courageous, virtue-signaling San Franciscans helping one another during a crinope, fleeing like rats for the exits at the first sign of trouble.
