The report details the effort by ushers and supervisors to address the complaints. According to the report, there were three different complaints about the two people “vaping, singing [and] causing a disturbance.”

Video from the theatre clearly shows Boebert vaping. The footage shows her taking photos with the flash on during the performance. She's also seen raising arms and clapping while almost everyone is seen sitting quietly.

UPDATE: The obligatory boob grab in a crowded theatre.
