The enjoyed quite a successful run at its initial site on Burnside Ave. but fell on hard times after an incident which led to a costly civil suit.
What was this? I remember going a couple times when it was on Burside by the stadium. Seemed like a perfect location.

A guy got hit by a car. That was a perfect location.

I don't remember a story about anyone getting hit by a car. I grew up less than a mile from that location and loved walking over there annually. I was pretty young at the time they moved the festival but I remember everyone saying some idiot cop went overboard beating up some guy and got them sued. Due to the civil suit they couldn't afford the insurance anymore.
