The Astroworld event on Friday claimed the lives of eight individuals and wounded hundreds more. Around 9:15 p.m. on Nov. 5, around 50,000 fans rushed toward the stage at NRG Park in Travis’ hometown of Houston. The audience began to swell near the front of the stage, and many became agitated.

This type of chaos is allegedly not uncommon during a Travis Scott show. After encouraging festival fans to leap over security barricades and storm the stage at Lollapalooza. In 2015 in Chicago, the “Antidote” rapper pleaded guilty to reckless conduct charges and was sentenced to one year of court supervision, according to Rolling Stone at the time. Fortunately, no one was hurt at the time.

Several individuals, including a security officer, were badly hurt during the “Goosebumps” performer’s act at an Arkansas music festival in 2017, prompting authorities to accuse him of instigating a riot. According to Billboard, Travis ended up pleading guilty to disorderly conduct, narrowly avoiding more severe penalties.

After Travis urged fans to dive into the audience at one of his gigs in New York City, a 23-year-old fan was partially paralysed after being pushed off a third-story balcony. Kyle Green, the wounded fan, told The Washington Post at the time, “I was in a lot of agony.” “I just laid there till an ambulance arrived.”

However, in recent years, those heightened emotions have gone out of hand, with this weekend’s tragedy already resulting in three lawsuits as of Monday, Nov. 8, and more likely on the way.
