AceShowbiz - Pete Davidson didn't have the best experience during his "Prehab Tour" stop in Omaha, Nebraska. The former star of "Saturday Night Live" was forced to abruptly end his standup gig early and walked off stage after being heckled by the audience.
In the Friday, May 24 show at Steelhouse, rowdy fans refused to be quiet. The 30-year-old comic/actor seemingly didn't have it as he decided to storm off stage nearing the end of his set.
Recounting the debacle was influencer Kate Stivers. In a YouTube video shared on Saturday, she condemned the fans' behavior while defending the "Bupkis" star's decision to leave the stage early.
"Where the f**k did decorum go at events because he shouldn't have had to walk off stage because you guys don't understand that because you see crowd work on TikTok that you think every comedian needs to be heckled to the point that they leave stage with one joke left," she said. "It's just absolutely absurd. You're ruining it for the whole show."
The influencer added that Pete's no phone policy during his tour was for "good reason." She continued, "There should be no tolerance. … You need to immediately be kicked the f**k out."
In addition to Kate, another fan jumped to Pete's defense following the drama. In a comment underneath Kate's video, someone wrote, "Disappointed Nebraska didn't allow him to feel respected enough to finish his set. Definitely embarrassing for Omaha, and sad that has to be his last taste of our city."
Another attendee wrote on Reddit, "I was there and it was so s**ty." The user added, "He was so close to being done and we lost out on a great ending to a great show because people suck."
Pete, meanwhile, has yet to comment on the matter.
