Fans attending ​pro-gun rocker Ted Nugent's concert Tuesday night were reportedly not allowed to bring their guns inside the theater.

Nugent's management made the decision as a result of a sub-contract between the singer and his promoter, ​according to 10 News, just minutes before the show began at the Berglund Performing Arts Theater in Roanoke, Virginia.

"It happened about five minutes before we opened doors, we had a security meeting before we opened doors and the subject came up and we said, 'Yes people will be bringing firearms,'" Berglund Center General Manager Robyn Schon said to 10 News. And Nugent's people said, "Uh, no, our agreement says no.'"

"Given the ​things that have happened in nightclubs like the Pulse and what happened in Manchester, (Nugent's) security people are taking extra precautions," Schon added. "They are not novices; they are very seasoned people."

1. Who's Ted Nugent?

[Judi Lynn]

2. O.K. Some view him as a violent, racist, vicious sadistic right-winger "celebrity"

who boasts of his zest for bow-hunting innocent animals wherever he can find them.

When he's not terrorizing wildlife he loves to promote guns, and rage against Democratic people and principles.

[Major Nikon]

4. A child rapist who wrote a song about raping children

Not surprisingly he's a Republican hero.

3. Someone should, however, spike thier drinks with a mean laxative.

Appropriately enough for the mercurial Mr. Nugent.

5. surely they're not banning everyone from bringing guns

it's got to be just the bad guys right?

14. This is the best he can do. Get in the news for not allowing guns

into a public event. Yawn.

[Timmygoat]

15. He is the one

Who sh-t his pants when he was due to go into the military, and walked around in his own excrement because he was so scared of having to go to war for this country.

[EricMaundry]

16. And here it was Meth and Machine Guns night

[ProfessorGAC]

17. If I Owned A High Powered Gun . . .

. . .my first target would be every one of that hack's guitars.
Since he can't play none anyway, nobody would care.

18. Is this the same Teddy that-

paraded around on stage a few years back with a machine gun (don't know if it was fake) and told lewd things he would do to Hillary with it?

Too lazy to look up the clip -

The only good audience is an armed audience when you attend one of his concerts.
