Lauren Boebert Escorted Out of Denver Theater After Vaping During Show
Boebert Denies Vaping Initially, Apologizes Later
Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado was escorted out of a Denver theater on Sunday night after several people seated near her in the audience complained about her vaping, according to reports.
The incident occurred at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, where Boebert was attending a performance of the musical "Wicked" with her husband and children.
According to witnesses, Boebert was seen vaping in the theater, despite the fact that vaping is prohibited inside the venue. Several people seated near her complained to theater staff, who then escorted her out of the building.
In a statement, Boebert initially denied that she had been vaping in the theater. However, she later apologized for her actions, saying that she had "made a mistake."
"I apologize to the Denver Center for the Performing Arts and to the patrons who were affected by my actions," Boebert said in a statement. "I made a mistake, and I take full responsibility for my actions."

The Denver Center for the Performing Arts has a strict policy against vaping inside the venue. The policy is posted on the theater's website and is announced before each performance.
Boebert's actions have been condemned by some critics, who say that she should have known better than to vape in a public place.
Others have defended Boebert, saying that she made a mistake and that she should not be criticized for it.
Conclusion
The incident has sparked a debate about the importance of following rules and regulations in public places. It has also raised questions about the role of vaping in society.
