No gun, no anthem: Singer opts out because she can't pack heat at ballpark

Originally, Alishia Wolcott graciously accepted an offer from the Reno Aces to sing the national anthem at a minor league baseball game this summer.

But there's been a change of plans, once Wolcott realized she can't bring her 9mm.

No, the Arizona Diamondbacks' Triple-A affiliate -- in alignment with the rest of Major League Baseball -- requires fans to go through a metal detector before entering the stadium.

And, no guns are allowed.

That didn't sit well with Wolcott, who said she already opted against attending a game earlier this season because of the policy.
