AceShowbiz - The fanbase of NBA YoungBoy sparked disorder at a Raleigh movie theater during the screening of the American Youngboy documentary last weekend, resulting in the police detaining seven juveniles.
The chaotic scene unfolded at North Hills Regal Cinemas, where fans of NBA YoungBoy turned the event into a disruption rather than a film viewing. Social media videos captured young attendees singing, dancing in the aisles, and performing choreographed moves directly in front of the theater screen.
The situation escalated to the point where theater staff had to evacuate all patrons. Around 8 P.M., Broadcastify radio recordings reported law enforcement responding to calls about roughly 20 people fighting inside the Chick-Fil-A and movie theater complex. While no confirmed physical altercation was verified, a dispatcher mentioned a “violent group” and a person behaving as if they had a gun.
The seven juveniles apprehended by Raleigh police were later released to their parents. This event is not isolated but rather part of a pattern of disruptions linked to NBA YoungBoy’s fanbase during his recent MASA tour.
Throughout the tour, multiple venues and law enforcement agencies have encountered challenges related to the rapper's fans. For instance, attempts by fans to storm the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans led to a temporary lockdown, barring legitimate ticket holders from entry. Similarly, Chicago’s United Center canceled NBA YoungBoy’s show altogether over safety fears.
At a stop in Columbus, South Carolina, the rapper himself paused a performance to address a fan who was repeatedly throwing objects onstage, warning that he would take action if it continued. Additionally, when NBA YoungBoy performed at the Lenovo Center in Raleigh in October 2025, the massive crowds caused citywide gridlock. That same event also saw a man arrested for breaking into multiple vehicles and stealing firearms.
Reports from venues across the country suggest that the theatrical release of the American Youngboy documentary has transformed into an event where fans recreate the intense and often unruly atmosphere of the MASA tour, overshadowing the film itself.
