Ok, Red Rocks itself is beautiful, and the shows I ve seen have been a lot of fun. However, the yellow shirts are essentially worthless if you have an issue. As I was leaving after a show, about 5 minutes into my walk I realized I had forgotten my favorite jacket. I ran back to grab it, but it was already gone. Thinking maybe one of the yellow shirts had picked it up, I asked the first one I saw who seemed pretty clueless and told me if anyone had picked it up, it may be in lost and found - which is next to impossible to find by the way. When I finally found it, a couple of the staff were there, and were so unfriendly and unhelpful I was blown away. After waiting around for someone to help me for probably a good 20 minutes, they finally told me that they only pick up valuables (cell phones, wallets, etc), but leave everything else lying there, including jackets as long as there s nothing in the pockets. I did notice there were people leaving the show with piles of jackets, so my guess is some people hang around after everyone leaves to grab anything that s left to sell it or something. So it would seem the yellow shirts are basically there to harass people doing nothing wrong (based on other reviews I ve read here), but not prevent thieves from taking things that don t belong to them. What s crazy is there were still a ton of yellow shirts around so they had to have seen these people making off with all that stuff.

So the moral of the story: make sure you don t forget anything you bring! Don t rely on the Red Rocks yellow shirts to do the right thing.
