on Twilight's Robert Pattinson Ignites Massive Mayhem in San Fran at 17:55 11/10/2008 as a reply on the comment by NorthshoreYeah, poor organization indeed...There's an Apple Store there & they had barricades set up for the release of the 3G iPhone...you would've thought they'd think ahead to that sort of detail...if it's "just" 500 people...also...mall security...at least the ONE dude they had...had NO control over the crowd whatsoever! which is also why the police were called in...*sigh* it actually became quite funny the scene afterwards...girls were, mothers, fathers, etc. were all in shock & still didn't believe it was canceled after Hot Topic rep told them so & the mall security & the SFPD....so, that entertained my camera :)

on Twilight's Robert Pattinson Ignites Massive Mayhem in San Fran at 17:51 11/10/2008I was out there and I spoke with a security guard later in the day...he said they really did not anticipate this crowd...he said they were expecting maybe 250-300, and hoping for 500 (which was the limit)...they problem didn't expect the twilight mom's OR have it in their mind that a MAJORITY of schools had today off...plus, stonestown is across the street from an ALL GIRL'S Catholic High School, 2 blocks from SF State, and up the hill from Lowell High School...I did go to see I could meet him -- definitely wasn't a crazy there at 4pm YESTERDAY (Sunday) afternoon...nor was I there at midnight...I also didn't fly in from Hawaii, Montana, Washington, Nevada...or even Los Angeles, to see him...I live here...but apparently others felt the need...it was definitely a crazy site...and I am one of the 500 to buy a tour shirt & will be getting tonight a signed (well, supposed to be) poster after Hot Topic opened..the world is not gonna be over because I didn't meet him -- soooo many more important things in the world to stress & worry about than this!! And this definitely was NOT worth a fractured/broken ankle...asthma attacks...fainting...AND BROKEN NOSES...
