But if they were actually going 20mph in here would be substantially more injuries.
20mph is really fucking fast when not in a car.
Does anyone know which escalator this was? I was at a game in April when the upper level left field escalator just straight up stopped while we were on it, wonder if it’s the same one.
I don’t think a malfunctioning escalator is capable of going 20mph. I’m sure it felt very fast though
I never did like that Mitch Hedberg joke
Just saw the news on this I’m a Cubs fan and I hope both Brewers and Cubs fans were both okay and not badly injured.
Uhhh you might wanna include something in there about “we’re working on making sure it never happens again.”
I was at this game, I’m glad we decided to take the stairs even with my (slightly) handicapped mom.
Will the lawsuits cut into our payroll
Hope everyone is okay. That sounds quite scary an malfunction on an escalator.
Remember last year the Brewers and stadium board got a bunch of money from the state for maintenance.
Yeah; this is what it is going towards.
They seriously need to update the things in that stadium that need it. Nobody cares about the stupid scoreboard.
Misheard my friend today and thought he said 11 deaths. Relieved it was just injuries but hope everyone is okay
Those replies on X are disgusting when people could be seriously injured. You do not hate FIBs enough ladies and gents. I only wish them a lifetime of misery with sports.
If me and my peoples didn’t stay back to take pictures, we would’ve been on that escalator. I heard all the screaming and I thought it was a fight until we figured out what was going on
I saw the first responders put a neck brace on a woman and looked like her leg was broken. Another was bleeding from the head , covered in blood, and was getting their head wrapped in bandages. It was a wild scene
I had problems with an escalator once and now I take steps to avoid them.
I was on this escalator when it malfunctioned! Ended up in a pile of people at the bottom, luckily they stopped it right before my girl got to the bottom. fucked up my knee a little bit and my brand new chourio jersey got spilled on, but could be way worse. Shit was wild though
Some employees of CHGO Sports were injured in the incident
Orthopedic Associates of Wisconsin, walk right in! Orthopedic Associates of Wisconsin there is a difference!
Idk what this is about, but “increased downward speed” is a really funny way of avoiding telling me
When the Coors field one broke in 2003 it cut part of a women’s heal (news says too that she lost a leg) she sued the stadium district and the manufacturer of the escalator.
That was a 3 story one.
I’ve avoided packed ones since then and usually make my way down before the very end of the game so it isn’t loaded with people, but I’m also not usually at too many sell out games anymore.
I hope all involved are on their way to a speedy recovery.
An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You should never see an Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order sign, just Escalator Temporarily Stairs. – MH
