Well if everyone isn't complaining like last time I guess it was better in check.

I've seen it happen both ways. I understand the rules, I don't mind. At the Garbage show two years ago, my friend, along with several other fans, asked for the setlist. The roadie (I'm fairly certain it was a roadie and not a club employee), after gesturing as if he was going to give it to someone, tore it up.
Yeah, tearing it up is kind of a dick thing to do. It's kinda saying "I've got this power, so fuck you." Beyond tearing it, I was at a Live on Penn show a couple of years ago, and the sound guys were ripping off of the stage, then crumbling them up and pitching them into the crowd. Albeit, this was amusing, several people just about killed each other going after it, just about knocking themselves out. And one list was thrown near a ten year old, and that kid just about got ripped apart, and he wasn't even paying attention to what was going on, his back was turned.
