Today, I was going to meet my friend at a concert. I got there before her, so I went in to check out the local bands that were playing before the headliner. When she got there, I went just outside the building to give her a ticket. The security guards wouldn't let me back in. She went in anyway. FML

Today, my friend and I went to see our favorite band in concert. We walked at least a mile from our parking space and stood in line for two hours. My friend was supposed to have the tickets in her purse. She actually had, but she left her purse in the car. FML
Today, I walked into a concert that I've been waiting months for. Immediately after passing through the doors, I was accused of sneaking in and thrown out. They wouldn't even look at my ticket, or the hand stamp they'd given me. FML
Today, it was the concert of my life. I had bought tickets the minute they went on sale, and I'd anxiously waited until the concert date. Thirty minutes before the show, my friend got so drunk that we weren't allowed in, and I was stuck babysitting her all night in the hotel, completely missing the show. FML
Today, I was at a metal concert and I met a really cute girl. We got talking, and started getting close. We were about to kiss during the transitional period between 2 bands, but I was then pulled away by her father, who owned the venue. I was thrown out. Before the main act. FML
Today, ever supportive of my friends, I went to a concert and tried to really get into the music. I was jumping and dancing, only to realize I was at the wrong concert. My friend's band was playing next door. I spent half an hour dancing with strangers to music I didn't even really like. FML
Today, I drove six hours with a friend to see one of her favorite bands in concert. We were turned away at the door because the online site didn't say we had to be 21 to enter. I drove six hours back with nothing to show for it but an empty gas tank and useless tickets. FML
Today, I went to a concert. One of my favorite bands was performing, and I'd had the ticket for seven months, with a great seat for the show. It was all going perfectly, that is until a guy twice my height sat in front of me. FML
Today, I was gonna take my ex to a concert, but we broke up before it so instead I went with my Tinder date. When I got to the venue, my ticket was already used. My ex was in there. My date never got in. FML
Today, I bought tickets for my friends and me to go to a concert. While I was in the shower, they ditched me and took my girlfriend. FML
Today, I dropped my daughter off at a concert where she was performing and went to look for parking. I got caught in freak traffic and it took me an hour to get back there. I missed her act. FML

YDI. Everybody knows that once you leave the venue there is no re-admission. And there are usually many signs at the entrance to tell you this. And I wouldn't blame your friend. Why waste 2 tickets instead of just 1 because you were too stupid to talk to a security guard or read a sign.

Don't places like that usually stamp your hand or something in case you have to leave? You should have checked with security before you left.

Concerts are always no re-entry. They have multiple warnings about it before the entrance, and it even says it on your ticket. What, did you think NO RE-ENTRY meant "No re-entry, for everyone except you because you're just so gosh darned special!"? YDI.

Wrong. Here they stamp your hand first time in, you can go in and out as many times as you want. it isn't ALWAYS no re entry.

But it's best to just assume that it's no re-entry. If the OP would have just assumed it was no re-entry then they wouldn't have had this issue.

Yeah, some venues change their rules about reentry for big name bands. It's possible that the OP had been there before and done the same with no problems. Lots of smaller places let people in and out all the time, so the hipsters can go smoke their cloves and whatnot between sets.

It makes absolutely no difference how far out you went, you went out. You should never have gone inside while holding a ticket for someone else in the first place. There are plenty of places you're allowed to leave tickets for people for situations exactly like this. It's not your friends fault you failed to realize the venue did not allow re-entry, nor is it her fault you didn't bother to ask if you'd be allowed back out. I'd have gone in to see the show too.

Next time wait for your friend outside. Or give her her ticket prior to going to the show. Valuable lesson learned.

Can't really be mad at your friend.....

I went to see "Creed" last night in concert and wanted to grab something out of my car. (But already knew I couldn't.) There were "No Re-Entry" signs everywhere. Why should your friend suffer because of your stupidity? You think the rules don't apply to you for some reason? Why are you surprised she left you? She wants to see the concert too.

Lol. People actually want to go back in at Creed shows? I'm surprised Creed and Nickleback don't get exemptions from the fire marshal so they can lock people in! Just teasing, sour. I'm not a fan, obviously. :P

Haha, I understand. I go to a lot of concerts. It's a date thing I do with my husband. We've been together for 22 years so we've run out of gift ideas. You're right "Creed" was only okay. But it was the first time I was in the pit section! I've been to much better concerts. Last concert was "Rob Zombie/ Korn". I'm guessing that is not your type of music also.(;
