Fans upset after Anuel AA cancels show; trash Capital One Arena
Fans were very angry that Anuel AA cancelled his concert in Washington D.C. after making fans wait over 3 hours for the show
That Saturday night, some fans waited more than three hours inside the arena – only to be told that Anuel AA wasn't going to make it. The Puerto Rican rapper said, at the time, he was facing a travel challenge.
A viral TikTok video captured people erupting in anger after finding out the concert was canceled.
In a statement, Monumental Sports, which operates Capital One Arena, said its staff were the ones who made the decision to postpone the concert as it was expected that the artist would be arriving near midnight before hitting the stage, severely hampering the thousands of fans and staff who relied on the Metro to return home, as last trains departed at 12:45 a.m.
"We understand the frustration of fans who were disappointed and inconvenienced," the statement reads. "The safety of our fans and staff are our top priority and we do not condone any aggressive actions taken as a result of this unfortunate circumstance."
