Just a random thought from last Friday night at Bloomington…

With the announcer urging everyone to get to a safe location when the rain/hail was coming down, why was the gate at the bottom of the hill (by the ticket booth) still closed? Shouldn’t it have been opened to hasten the exit of fans to that safe location? As it was, fans had to either go single file or go behind the hand-stamp hut, taking a chance on the wet, slick slope. I guess in my mind the gate should have been opened when the mass exodus began. Might seem like a small thing, but it’s just something that I think they should look at in the future should fans need to head out quickly and safely again.

Regardless, I’ll still be there every Friday night
