A woman gave birth to a baby girl in the Neptune Theatre‘s bathroom during a Damian Marley concert on Wednesday night.

A janitor at the venue told KOMO the baby girl was beautiful. And it gets better, as told by the new mom’s sister:

“She was like in the stretcher. And the little baby was right here. She was like, ‘yeah.’ And the crowd cheered.”

A manager at the Neptune said this is the first baby born inside the venue.

“I’ve never seen anybody sneak into a show that way before. But there’s a first time for everything,” said the manager.
