Must be a new rule. We’ve parked on that side, purchased seats close to those doors, and exited there for years. They often won’t permit people from exiting before the show is over, but never stopped us after the last number is over.

I’d better call before purchasing more tickets.

Up until this season always allowed to exit side door. Helps with backup of everyone exiting same place

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.
Great show, great songs, great singers. The patter was to tie the songs into a sort of story. If you want to hear great singing and little joking come to the Village Pops Christmas concert at North Lake Presbyterian on Dec 6. Some of the same singers joined by over 100 more plus a band.

I can tell most people who are whining about this post have never attended a show at Savannah. The “side doors” have always been open at the close of a show, to assist in emptying out the venue in a more orderly manner. Without those doors open, there would be a HUGE bottleneck of people going out the ONE small door at the entrance. I can’t imagine any reason to NOT allow people to continue to exit out the side doors unless there is some construction work being done on that side..which is a possibility.

We attended a concert months ago. A couple with us attempted to use that same exit and were told the same. I wonder of it's a way to make sure everyone leaves the building where cameras capture the outgoing crowd. Just a guess?

I always go out the same door I came in. It’s bad luck if you don’t.
