New Whitney remix causes stampede at gay club
NEW YORK — 34 people at Club Limelight were seriously injured in a stampede Sunday night that began when the DJ at the gay nightclub spun a popular new remix of Whitney Houston’s “Whatchulookinat.” Patrons inside the club had already filled the dance floor to capacity when, upon hearing the new mix, the crowd of over 100 people standing in line outside the club pushed past security and on to the floor as well.
“It was completely out of control. 500 Half-naked men cramming in and pushing up against each other just to dance to Whitney. All things considered, I’d do it again,” said witness Bryan Hayes.
There were boys jumping off the mezzanine level to get to the dance floor. “It was literally raining men,” quipped James Malone, another witness.
