‘Hitting a mosh pit with Khal Drogo is a once in a lifetime opportunity’: Jason Momoa blends right in with the crowd at a Metallica gig

"Rock on, Aquaman!"

Jason Momoa didn’t need protection during his time at a metal gig, as concertgoers followed moshpit etiquette to create a safe and respectful environment. The DC star was treated like any other fan after he was spotted moshing with other attendees like there was no tomorrow, creating a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for fans who were lucky to meet him.

Videos circulated on a special and secluded VIP area, Momoa watched the show with the rest of the crowd up close. He engaged with other attendees in a circle pit, where he was seen running around along with them.

Moshing with Jason Mamoa inside Metallica’s Snake Pit was not on my bingo card for 2023 😂 @prideofgypsies moshed in the circle pit with us during Whiplash. I ended up jumping in the circle pit myself and he high fived me at the end 🥲🥲🥲 Jason is of the people and he really is as nice as everyone says he is. Last night’s show was incredible and one I will never forget! #fyp #metallica #metal #metalhead #metalmusic #circlepit #snakepit #moshing #metallicafamily #metallicafans #jasonmamoa #metalheadgirl #metalmusic #metalconcert #metallicaforever #metalgirl #metalaf #metalband #metaltok #metaltiktok

The Game of Thrones star was aware that he would be spotted at the event; he even faced some of the crowd during Pantera’s set. The actor also seemed unfazed by people getting close to the point where he somewhat welcomed fans to take photos and videos of him. Momoa posted on Instagram his experience during the event, sharing that he had fun and also had the opportunity to meet the band backstage.

There’s an ill-conceived stereotype about metalheads being disrespectful and violent due to their music preferences. However, this concert experience shares that’s clearly not the case. Not only did fellow Metallica fans respect Momoa’s space, but they also treated him as one of their own. Nobody tried to ruin the experience for anyone, and at the end of the day, everyone just had fun and enjoyed the music.

This is a rare instance where a celebrity is treated normally by fans. Not only did it enhance the concert experience, but fans were also able to approach their favorite actor without the risk of getting into trouble with security.
