- Storm’s owner, Kathy Villa, told KTLA they don’t know how Storm managed to sneak out. They checked the footage from CCTV cameras but couldn’t find her secret route. She also only discovered her dog’s adventure when she saw the images of her sitting amid the crowd with a big smile on her face.
- Villa shared that she couldn’t believe that Storm was indeed out there sitting in the seat as if she, too, had bought a ticket to enjoy the Metallica concert. The other parent, Aribeth Hurtado, shared that he couldn’t understand how Storm managed to make her way into the stadium, passing the security, gates, metal detectors, and everything.
- The only answer seems to be that she sneaked among the crowd at lightning speed and sat in one of the chairs.

Was this the Metal Dog’s first show?
After the images of Storm sitting at the SoFi stadium went viral, one of the netizens also discovered another footage of a dog crashing Wrestlemania‘s show earlier this year. The dog in the footage looks very similar to the beloved dog, and as it was at the same stadium, many believe that Storm is a regular at the shows.
This dog went to both Metallica and WrestleMania in the same year. I will never be as cool as she is https://t.co/InLoq7sRjV

Further shared that she listened to their whole concert, especially enjoying the tracks Barx Æterna, Master of Puppies, and The Mailman That Never Comes.
You might have heard we had a four-legged fan join us for #M72LA! Despite reports to the contrary, our friend Storm snuck out of her home adjacent to @SoFiStadium and made her way to the gig all by herself.
