Anyone have any idea how much
Anyone have any idea how much it costs (policing, courts, incarceration) vs. how much is brought with fines with these arrests and citations?
I figure that the promoter/Darien Lake calculates the additional costs for security and clean-up in determining its bottom line when offering these concerts. How much do these events cost the county, or is the county making money in this way?
Don't know costs, but Live
Don't know costs, but Live Nation pays for the on-duty deputies who work inside the venue.
Not sure if they're doing it this year, but last year part of that on-duty force included off-duty Batavia PD officers. (On duty with the Sheriff's Office, off duty with BPD.)
I'm surprised the car fire in
I'm surprised the car fire in the parking lot that required several fire trucks and held up traffic for hours wasn't reported.
It was difficult to pick out
It was difficult to pick out the scanner traffic specifically on the fire from all the other traffic. By the time I figured out there was a fire, it was over.
There is no reason why they
There is no reason why they can't have great concerts and limited problems. I worked for 10+ years doing security for concerts (big name concerts at big venues) and we never had these issues. Our security staff were well trained and knew how to handle crowds. Yes of course you are going to have those few but come on, letting someone back in to a concert venue after they had been kicked out? The things that they allow to happen should be happening there. For a place that is an on going venue, there is no reason why they shouldn't have these issues resolved. They should be expecting under age drinking, fights, issues in parking lots, so what are they doing about it?? To me it seems like we keep seeing the same thing every week. Ok, some get caught but why is it being allowed to continue because for the 20 that get caught 50 are getting away with it. Just an observation that they should be held accountable for what is going on. Of course, so should the people that are going but Darien is not doing a good enough job of stopping this.
