Bruce Springsteen’s parking ticket welcome to Leeds
A PARKING warden who slapped tickets on Bruce Springsteen’s tour trucks ahead of a landmark gig has left town hall chiefs “a little embarrassed”.
The attendant ticketed the huge articulated vehicles as The Boss prepared to play the first-ever gig at the £60million Leeds Arena on Wednesday.
Bemused fans described the warden as a “jobsworth” for targeting the trucks parked on double yellow lines outside the venue.
Leeds City Council said: “We accept this is a little embarrassing but, to be fair, the attendant was doing his job – if a little too efficiently. Having considered the circumstances, the tickets were cancelled.”
