Wild Night At The Chesney/Aldean Concert In Green Bay

Kenny Chesney & Jason Aldean teamed up last Saturday night (June 20th) for a concert at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, WI. It was a memorable show for the more than 53,000 fans in attendance. And for some, it might be even more memorable and something they might like to forget.

Green Bay police reported that 25 people were arrested at the show. Capt. Police confiscated tickets from at least 125 other people, but the total number of ejections was likely between 250 and 300.

These numbers are higher than at the typical event at Lambeau. Police during the 2014-15 season averaged 6 arrests and 25 ejections during Packers games, including preseason games.

"I don't recall, in my 27 years," ever having a game where we were this busy," said Police Captain Paul Ebel.

Police report a steady stream of arrests and ejections. The arrests started before the show, (before 8 p.m.), and continued until almost midnight. Most arrests involved typical charges at a Lambeau event: Unlawful conduct at a public event, resisting arrest, and fighting.

"Early-season Bears games are usually our busiest, and we might get 40 calls" according to Green Bay Police.
