Support The Who Concert Tragedy Memorial
Petition published by Jessica Lawrence on Dec 09, 2009
Target: Cincinnati's City Council
Region: United States of America
Petition Background (Preamble):
30 years ago Cincinnati's Riverfront Coliseum hosted the Who concert. There were over 18,000 people in attendance. When only a few doors were open, the people started to trample others to get inside the Coliseum, to get a good seat.
No one knew at the time they were trying to get into the concert and heard shortly after that 11 people had been trampled to death and a couple dozen people were injured.
