Hartford group plans ‘ball gown tailgate’ at Sunday’s Jason Aldean concert
FOX 61 ^

Posted on 07/29/2023 9:12:29 AM PDT by matt04

Community activists are planning a “ball gown tailgate party” in protest at the Jason Aldean concert Sunday at the Xfinity Theatre in Hartford. Aldean’s music video for his song “Try that in a small town” drew controversy nationwide.

The group based the theme of the tailgate on a viral meme depicting Jason Aldean in a gown with the words “Try that in a ball gown."

...

Kamora Herrington who runs Kamora’s Cultural Corner organized the event called “Small Towns against Hate” and says the tailgate is not a protest but is a way to have fun while having difficult conversations. “If the way that we come together is to have a fight, who wins? No one, “said Herrington.

“When what seems like intolerance comes to town. Let's get together and enjoy each other…Let's share conversation over food and snacks and let's tailgate and have a great time,” said Herrington.

In-your-face virtue signaling. The Left expects tolerance, but gives none in return.

I wonder if his Brokeback Mountain Boyz backed him up on the MP3. Probably gonna be a Tik Tok challenge challenging toddlers to see how many times they can listen to it in a row.

I think it’s the implied threat of vigilante lynchings that gets people down.

“..I think it’s the implied threat of vigilante lynchings that gets people down....”

Well, folks need to understand that’s what eventually happens in a society when the legal system/law enforcement can’t, or won’t, do their jobs.

In Hartford the only danger of lynchings is what could happen to white folks who stumble into the wrong part of town.

Liberals assume being against crime and criminals is being against black people. Basically inferring that black people are criminals. Talk about being racist.

Hartford ain’t a small town. It’s actually a pretty tough town. But the event location would require walking and parking. Most of the indigenous folks wouldn’t go to the trouble of protesting.

But, I bet he sells the place out.

“indigenous folks”

In Hartford they are hilariously easy to spot during events like this one—as long as you are not color blind.

The rule of opposites—when lefties say they are “against hate” they are in favor of hating whitey and straight people.

People from small towns or farms are the people I would want to have beside me to accomplish anything useful.
They know how to get things done, think through problems, and yes relate to all kinds of people.
People from cities, usually the opposite.
Yes I know what I just wrote is grouping people together and stereotyping
But I have found it to be accurate .

City people could learn a great deal from small towns .
But they haven’t a clue what they are missing .

This is actually a second “redo“ show. His first show was a few weeks ago, but he suffered from signs of heat stroke in the show ended early but decided to come back and make it up the fans to get to complete set list in.

I was thinking about going to the last one and it was practically sold out with only a few hundred tickets available in a 20,000 seat amphitheater.

Also, anyone who’s ever been to a show at that theater knows it can be a traffic nightmare in the area and stays well away, unless you were actually attending the show.

The protest is in one of your Jason, business parking lots that is used for parking during the events as live nation, generally doesn’t allow people without tickets on the property or in the lots.

I used to go there all the time. Traffic was bad, but we tailgated before and after…so it didn’t matter.

These days a couple of beers would have me sleeping in the bed of the truck!

Plus…there are bad thunderstorms going through right now. That’s gonna put a damper on any protest.
