News report

U2 return to Kansas City for the first time in 16 years and Arrowhead Stadium for the first time in 20 years.
The Kansas City Royals are name checked during “Beautiful Day.” The Royals, who play right across the street at Kauffman Stadium, were forced to change their schedule from a night game to a day game in order to avoid the extra traffic from the U2 concert.
The visuals on screen during “One” feature the state seal of Florida morphing into the Red Cross emblem and finally the American flag, paying tribute to those suffering from Hurricane Irma.
The show ends with Bono snippeting "Drowning Man" for the third straight show.
