Now, this is a shame for many, many reasons. The foremost being that a dude died. The second being that he died at a 'Smashing Pumpkins' concert in 2007, not 1997. And, the third being that he allegedly died because of crowd-surfing.
At the PNE Forum on Monday night, the security staff dragged an unconcious male out of the crowd and took him to St. Paul's hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
When asked if the death was a result of a mosh-pit, Officer Harry Chow said, "it could be." A witness on the scene said that the man had been crowd-surfing and fell.
Alright, let's quit it with this moshing thing. It wasn't cool in the early 90s and it sure as hell isn't cool now.
