Place is dangerous, had an issue last event and police tried to blame husband😡
There is a video on snap chat, if you check the snap chat map of a group of guys saying they knocked someone out.
Thank you
So the guy died and wasn’t even in a n accident???
No, this was the result of a disturbance.
That place should be closed down there’s always underage people drinking , fights it’s just a awful place for anyone to go to cause half of them go there can’t handle their alcohol
Y’all get on my nerves it’s dumb ass people not everybody get it straight
Shut it down! They need to investigate the police dept. And hiring a security guard is crap!
Prayers go out to the victims family. Put a group of rednecks together who have been drinking all day and operating machinery (a bad combo to begin with) add sparse private security and you are asking for disaster. Please, please shut this place down.
Got to love people want to shut something.down that people want to have fun at people make mistakes every day so why shut it down would you rather them go out and tear up your yards and fields because every place they have to go is shut down because of some issues wow think about it people
And prays to who ever it was I was there and didnt get there tell they was carrying someoff
Investigate the security team. There have been numerous incidents where they use excessive force or even initiate a problem…as if looking for a fight. They act as if its their personal “fight club”
Even if they’re not directly to blame for this death, if the security team is allowed to continue with unprofessional, aggresive behavior, they will hurt more people.
In the end that was someone’s loved one that died! Whatever happened to respecting that family? RIP Sir. Prayers to the family.
You sign a waiver to get in so why should it be shut down that’s stupid if you don’t feel safe going don’t go period
