People are leaving TwitchCon 2022 With Severe Injuries

[sandstorm]

TwitchShow is turning into a Shitshow
The exhibit was part of the weekend-long event for the livestreaming video platform, which this year was held at the San Diego Convention Center. With a ball foam pit sponsored by Lenovo and Intel, people were battling ala "American Gladiators" with foam rods

How do you break your back in a foam pit?

Oh never mind. Just read concrete bottom. JFC. I can't believe they had that.

They didn’t set it up properly. It’s supposed to be at least 5-6 inches deep with a trampoline beneath but none of that was there. I think it was 1-inch deep 😬

Oh man. They better pay up.

This never would've happened at Dashcon

I was just having vivid ball-pit flashbacks

[fnowae]

I watched internet historians video on dashcon the other day and was blown away at how much MORE there was to it

"how much MORE there was to it"

Right? I'd watched a different vid on it, by Sarah Z, and damn it was interesting.
