Pissed off fans get refunds after disastrous Kanye West show
Ticketmaster is reaching into its pockets after a disastrous Kanye West concert at the Gold 1 Center in Sacramento on Saturday.
Fans are furious after West reportedly showed up 90 minutes late to the concert, then ended the show early after a lengthy Kanye West-style rant which involved him saying Beyoncé "hurt" him and asking Jay Z to return his phone call.
Thank you @kanyewest for starting an hour and a half late and preforming for 10 min and talking for 15 min & then ending the concert

Ticketmaster is updating their no-refund policy to include what they're calling the "Kanye Protocol"

West is slated to perform at the The Forum in Inglewood on Sunday night.
According to fans at the Sacramento show, West only performed three songs before stopping to talk to the crowd. After the rant, West declared the show over, dropped his mic and walked off stage.
Here's a longer version of the incident if you care to see what's going on inside Kanye's mind.
