CBS enraged Billy Joel fans when they cut off the broadcast of his 100th concert at Madison Square Garden during the performance of "Piano Man," due to a delay caused by the Masters Tournament coverage. Viewers expressed outrage on social media, criticizing the network for excessive commercials, out-of-order setlist, and the abrupt switch to local news.
