BAINBRIDGE ISLAND, Wash. - Police removed a woman from the Bainbridge Performaing Arts theater for yelling "boring" during a symphony performance.
The staff called police Nov. 12 after the woman refused to leave, following numerous audience complaints.
The Kitsap Sun reports the executive director told police the woman has a professional rivalry with the new conductor.
The woman's teenage daughter was performing as part of the orchestra that night, but was apparently was not the target of her comments. The woman told police that she wanted to stay to hear her play. Despite the woman's odd behavior, she told authorities "that was how things were" between her and her daughter.

If a concert bores you, nobody will stop you for leaving. That doesn't mean you get to ruin the concert for everyone else there.
