I went to this concert thinking it was going to be a great experience. This was my first rap concert, and I was fully pumped. We get there and it started from the minute we got out of the car. There was nowhere to be seen a place for Lyft drives to do drops offs, so we pulled to the curb. A man from the security decided to not speak to us respectfully. We hadn't even spoke to him at this time. We get out and he's yelling at us to move, and constantly asking us why we got dropped off there. Then we get into the venue and this is when it starts up. We are all standing there having a great time and security decides to push there way through, even though it wasn't even remotely packed. They pushed us and were very rude with their approach. I saw a a girl and her friend that I knew get kicked out because someone else underage had been drinking. Then my friend had hit her vape a couple times thinking it was okay because she and I have both been to past concerts and have vaped, and were not told that it wasn't allowed. They came up to her and caused and extreme scene. She was vaping and they accused her of using THC (liquid marijuana in a vape pod) it wasn't THC it was vape juice. They continued to state that it was illegal for her to use it because the age to purchase vape products or nicotine in general was 21. They kicked her out for using a vape, even though not even 15ft. Away were other people doing it too. Then maybe 10-15 minutes after that the person on stage told everyone to raise their middle fingers up. So of course everyone did. My friend was waving his around every direction. Then two security officers walk up and try to kick him out because my friend was "offending" security. My other friend talked to another officer and complained that she has never experienced something like this before and was disgusted by how people we being treated. They took what she said and helped our friend get back in. I just want to say that 45% of the security staff were nice, and very helpful while I was there. Like I said this was my first rap concert, but I will not be going back to the Egyptian Room in downtown Indianapolis again because of the way people were treated at the concert.
