Question
 
Last evening I attended a show at the Savannah Center. At the end of the show , we attempted to exit thru the side door. We we stopped and told that we could NOT exit thur the side door and would have to exit thru the front door. When I questioned "why not?" I was told that it was a Fire Dept. rule. I question that explanation! can't use and exit? Has anyone heard of this before?

Maybe call the Center and ask.

Maybe the door has an alarm.

Maybe it's not lit well enough.

Maybe it was muddy from all the rain.

Maybe it's not staffed.

Most fire exit doors have an alarm on them.

We were promised we could always exit through the side door. What will -they- take away next?😉

Sometimes employees make up their own rules.

If by "side door" you mean the one facing El Camino Real, that one has never been closed when I've been there

Not sure about the door, but what did you think about the show?
I thought those guys were incredible singers, but some of their comedy skits were head scratchers. I would have preferred they do more singing and less joking.

Yes! Very common for years all over the country to control entrance and exit areas for fire, safety, security, traffic, etc.

Maybe?

Maybe they only knew those songs and had to do other stuff to fill the time??
Sorry I missed it.
