Man I kind of get the effort to slow down the crowd. He probably didn't have any other choice.

But idk if tripping and throwing people to the ground in the middle of a stampede is the right move as a security guard.

The promoter will.

Security withdrew after the yutes stormed the grounds in the AM. They realized it was unmanageable.

More like the Who concert in Cincinnati in 1979 where 11 died.

“WKRP in Cincinnati” actually did a serious episode about that incident.



I was just looking up concert disasters and for the first time in a while, I was reminded of the 2003 Great White concert fire.

What a clusterfrick that was. A club with a 250 person capacity, filled to 400 people, pyrotechnics, flammable foam everywhere.

Every teenager in Houston wanted to go to this concert. I know many kids that went to this. This is awful


Shows how sad the state of parenting is in our country.

Reminds me of the Who concert in Cincinnati when many fans were killed/ crushed before the show began

An Irish girl was killed by being crushed in a mosh pit at a Smashing Pumpkins concert in 1996.

That's how old I am.

Dying in a crush is a terrifying thought. You can’t breathe because your chest can’t expand.

So a Travis Scott concert wasn't attended by a much higher % by one race? How naive are you?

What?

His most popular demographic is the 20 year old white suburban kid, not sure what you're talking about.

That’s why my kids are being raised the right way with Rock and metal, not this crappy rap shite.

Its certainly a cultural problem. Dumb, poor people of any race. Crushing the barricades earlier in the day was enough.

Sadly the ones behaving badly probably walked away. Those killed were probably in the front, and they got there early.

But if this were say a Foo Fighters, or Marilyn Manson, or Chevelle, or Pearl Jam, or Bad Wolves, or any other rock concert, it would be made into a "white people are evil" race thing by a lot of media outlets
Well most of the concertgoers last night were white, so you're on record stating the same, the media will make this a "white people are evil" thing, right?
