DragonKing Dark: The Who’s 1979 Cincinnati concert tragedy

We continue our 100 darkest moments in pop culture history with a look back at another concert disaster.

This one happened before a concert by The Who in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1979 where eleven fans were crushed to death when the doors to the arena failed to open in time. Like several of the tragedies we’ve looked at so far, this one is compounded by the young age of the victims.
