According to a CNN report, residents made “hundreds of calls” to the local fire service thinking there had been an earthquake.

It was confirmed with local authorities, however, that the tremors were caused by thousands of people jumping at Scott’s concert. That night, he introduced Ye (aka Kanye West), who has not publicly performed since making antisemitic comments online.

As a result, Colosseum director Alfonsina Russo is calling for an end to mega concerts at the Circus Maximus. MORE HERE

  10. It’s the Circus Maximus, not the Coliseum. Picture a big oval field.

    There you go.

    That’s all it is. While I may not choose to attend a Travis Scott concert, the thing was built for the masses, not the elite. It’s literally where it is so the hoi poloi don’t break the expensive stuff in town.
