    We don’t have a national ID. However, how would a promoter(s) knows they are minors. Right now, some of these minors (teens) looks Twenty-one and older.

    This is pathetic. So many children sneak out and end up at these shows. Nowadays children look like big people. KFC have their breasts and body huge so a 13 year.old looks like a 20 year old. I guess they need an ID. But with AI even that can be faked
