    I’m sorry, I might still be confused… did he get arrested and tazed for just continuing to conduct the band? Why were the police even stopping him? This seems insane.

      Cops wanted to go home. Cops can’t go home till everyone leaves. People are staying because band is still playing. Cops throw tantrum.

        I guess they were done abusing their overtime and didn’t want actual overtime into their personal time.

        Which is bizarre. I’ve never heard of a football stadium just instantly shutting everything down after the game. There’s always post-game entertainment, opportunities for the opposing teams to shake hands, sometimes some announcements, that sort of thing.

        Utterly ridiculous, power-tripping cops. I hope he takes them to the cleaners.

      The cops, who I’m guessing are lying as usual, claimed he shoved one of them. Which, of course, is totally a reason to use a taser.
