did see this falling/strectcher incident, but i did see the accident that is being talked about on route 17N. i drove past that as well, car was upside down and all. emergency vehicles were just showing up when i went by.
That's exactly what happened. Everything went black and I just fainted... and fell down the arena staircase. It really does suck!!
Glad to hear you are OK, dude. Lots of scary stories and rumors circulating ... happy to hear they were only partially true and that you are alive.
I was in a club in Pittsburgh once and suddenly everything got real slow. At the time, I wasn't drinking or doing any other drugs. I was compleptely sober. Everything got slow and all I could see was a little set of steps, so I tried to make my way to them so that I could sit down. Then I saw my buddy, but I couldn't understand what he was saying to me. Next thing I remember, I'm laying on the floor looking up at a circle of people standing around me. When something like that sneaks up on you, it is frightening. I didn't fall very far, though. But I lost control and didn't know what was going on.
You are a lucky dude. Your injuries could have been far worse from a fall like the one you had.
It sucks that you missed the show. But you can rock out harder at your next one, bro.
I MET SIR MIKE F'N McCREADY!!!!!!!!

I took a pretty nasty fall on Night one, I was on Mike's side about 20 rows back, and some lady that worked there was constantly mopping the main aisle of the floor. After hearing Baba I wanted to hit the men's room because I waited the whole show to go and I fell flat on my face smashing my chin on the concrete. Luckily I didn't get hurt but who the hell mops during a concert. All this lady did was coat the floor with a layer of wet beer!

haha why not? We are neighbors buddy. I live in Bay Shore and you're in West Islip.
cool. we could have been real neighbors. we looked at a bunch of houses in bay shore, but bought in WI. I almost wiped going down the stairs night 1. It was like it rained inside the arena
It was a weird night. I had aisle seats in section 211... No exaggeration I watched at least 20 people fall. By the end of the night the floor was covered with fries, ketchup, mustard, popcorn, beer, a crushed hot dog, etc...
Hahahahaha...for some reason this is making me laugh so hard...hilarious!!!!! You described all of the other food as is, but that the hot dog was "crushed" is making me laugh out loud...hahaha!
