George decided to not continue with the show and leave.'  But Lopez's team has denied the venue's claims and said that the 'the casino staff was unable to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for the artist and guest'.   'It's the venue or casino's job to provide a good experience for both the artist and the fans, but the casino failed in this regard.  'The audience was overserved and unruly, and the casino staff was unable to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for the artist and guests.  'George's personal security team worked with the venue security staff to maintain order, ensure safety, and eject disruptive individuals.

Unfortunately, the casino security team was not adequate to accomplish this task. 'George is not obligated to perform in an unsafe environment. He feels badly that those who came to see the show were unable to do so as a result.'  While the hecklers have not yet been identified, other audience members have voiced their disappointment and anger on social media.  Lopez's team has denied the venue's claims and said that the 'the casino staff was unable to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for the artist and guest' 'We were having such a great time, wonderful dinner, gambling, laughing then all of a sudden it was over so fast.

Everyone was in shock,' wrote one viewer on the venue's post.  While another said: 'This is the 2nd time I've rearranged my schedule to see him and was completely let down. Grew up watching him and was looking forward to the opportunity to see him live. Definitely the last time I paid to see him.'
