50 Cent's San Francisco Gig Shut Down By Police
01.27.2003 4:55 PM EST
The enormous hype surrounding 50 Cent backfired on Friday after thousands of ticketless fans stranded outside a San Francisco club forced police to shut down the rapper's show inside.
A spokesperson for the San Francisco Police Department said between 3,000 and 4,000 people were blocking traffic outside Kelly's Mission Rock when authorities arrived around 10 p.m. to disperse the crowd.
While one person was arrested for inciting a riot, the spokesperson said the crowd was otherwise "very peaceful."
An employee at Kelly's said 50 Cent was never even able to get inside the venue because of the mob outside and that the 1,000 people who bought tickets for the sold-out show will have their money refunded.
A spokesperson for 50 Cent did not return phone calls.
The Eminem and Dr. Dre protégé is on a short tour to promote his major-label debut, Get Rich or Die Tryin', due February 11 (see "50 Cent Says He's Capitalizing On Arrest, Doesn't Mind Being Bootlegged"). He performed Saturday in Las Vegas and Sunday in San Diego at a Super Bowl party with Fabolous, and will wrap the outing February 16 in Baltimore.
50 Cent was arrested on December 31 in New York when police allegedly found two loaded guns in his rented SUV (see "50 Cent Appears In Court On Gun Charges").
