Now that "The Gathering," which was held in the small town of Cave-In-Rock, Illinois, is over, the people of the town, as well as the police, are breathing a sigh of relief, as it ended -- shock and awe -- without an incident.

 

Approximately 6,000 people showed up for the event, and the worst they had to deal with were some drug arrests, mostly for marijuana possession, though one man was arrested for intent to sell ecstasy. Other than that? It turns out Insane Clown Posse fans, while a bit strange, aren't some hideous, dangerous gang. 

 

The biggest problem was the extreme heat -- which left some people needing treatment both on and off site.  And since that had nothing to do with Insane Clown Posse [I don't think they control the weather, anyway] it's safe to say that a lot of the worries about the duo, as well as their fans, are generally unfounded.
