Netizens express their anger online
As soon as it became known that the concert would not be rescheduled, many fans and netizens took to social media to express their anger at the situation. Many people commented that although weather conditions cannot be controlled, it is unfair not to reschedule the event once conditions improve.One person commented: “Do you realize some people have been waiting a whole year for this concert and even traveled from other countries to attend? Not rescheduling the show is incredibly disappointing and honestly unacceptable”, while another fan commented: “This was not expected from Bad Bunny…”Another netizen expressed his disappointment over the matter, writing: “It’s a shame, really, that they don’t get any extra gigs.” while a third person shared: “This is indecent. First of all, because the organization should anticipate a possible postponement due to any factor (illness, bad weather, etc.), and then because there are people who have waited 1 year and come from all over Italy to see it. Ok refund but not enough.” Another social media user commented: “This was not handled properly and now this? The concert should be rescheduled why don’t they.”The Puerto Rican singer has been touring places around the world for his ‘Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour’.
