I cannot believe the shit the Tempe Market Place Harkins did. They told everyone there no line until 9pm so my sister and I went to eat, got out of the Cheeburger place next to the theater at 7ish and the line had begun and already had over 1000 people. SO SO SO SO PISSED OFF as were many others.
Tempe police said too many people were blocking and wanted the line started early, opened 2 doors where the line would be and told everyone to “run” which they did and injured 2 girls WHO Harkins did not care nor feel they should be given tickets. They decieded to give tickets to the stupid people who did not follow the rules and ignore and tell those who did, “um, sorry.” I’ll be posting a few pictures I took.
It was so out of hand and people who worked for the mall were being really stupid and wanted those not inline to leave and people were getting angry, wanting to riot… and the news station, CBS 5, Fox 10, all the news there seemed to want to COVER UP what was happnening and make Tempe Market place look good, I guess its to make it look as if it went all smoothly so not to scare of the Hollywood people. So I did not stay there all night to win tickets, I went to a friends house, had some Taco Bell, watched a movie, and went t sleep a bit after 5am.
People need to know what happened last night, and not ignore the fact Tempe police not only started a panic run, they interfered with the contest and screwed over a lot of people as well as Fox. Fox wanted something that looked “good” for the news, so a panic run seemed to be the thing they wanted. There was people arriving from as far as Queen’s Creek, and Apache Junction for a chance to win, and they did not even have a chance even though they arrived an hour before the line was SUPPOSED to start. I’ll post images of people from Harkins who were not being nice, or seem to give a damn to those who got screwed later tonight as I am not even home yet, still at friends house.
