KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A highly anticipated concert hit Arrowhead Stadium Wednesday night, amid a major safety change. Wednesday night, folks were enjoying “Guns N’ Roses” perform, which was the first event where fans passed through metal detectors.

Fans lined up early to see the group perform 23 years after they broke up, and 24 years after fan Shane Sayers saw their last performance in Kansas City.

“It’s like Elvis being back alive, and playing. It is fantastic. I couldn’t ask for anything better,” said Sayers, who got the tickets as a birthday gift.

“One of my favorite songs is ‘One in a Million,’ because what I have here right next to me is one in a million,” said fan Brian Williamson, when referencing his wife Michelle standing next to him.

At Brian’s request, Michelle made a dress out of his vintage “Guns N’ Roses” tapestry.

For the first time ever, fans had to pass through metal detectors to get inside Arrowhead Stadium to see the show. Previously the stadium only used metal detecting wands. A spokesperson said the move is not in response to any tragedy, simply a means to make passing through security more efficient and consistent.

There is now a total of 93 metal detectors at Arrowhead, but only 50 were used for Wednesday night’s concert.

Once football season kicks off you can expect to see them at every gate, for each game. FOX 4 heard from fans who didn’t seem to mind the metal detectors at all, and added that plenty of other venues have them.
