A UCLA student says crowd surges started about 2½ hours before Friday's game against Villanova.
The Houston police and fire departments were deeply involved in safety measures for the music festival where a surging crowd killed eight people.
“There was a series of waves caused by pushing in the back of the line, which rippled through the crowd,” Zickwolff said. “It was quite terrifying; I could hear the murmurs and noises coming before I even felt any motion. It reminded me of the way a tsunami sucks out water into the ocean before it crashes on shore.”
“They didn’t seem to understand that our movement was not determined by us,” Zickwolff said, “but rather the people at the back of the line who were pushing.” Junior applied math major Hayden Epinette said he was unable to attend the game after waiting about seven hours after his group of friends got in line around 11:45 a.m. A UCLA staffer told the group that it was roughly No. 250 in line but as game time approached, someone in the group was told more than 1,000 wristbands to get into the game had already been distributed as a result of others who had cut in line.
