Hailstorm wreaks havoc at Red Rocks concert, injuring fans and prompting criticism.

TL;DR Summary
An anonymous employee at Red Rocks Amphitheater criticized the decision to delay the concert, which gave fans hope the show would go on as planned, and said there was not enough room in the venue's facilities to house the large crowd in attendance during the hailstorm. The employee refuted claims by fans on social media that Red Rocks workers watched and laughed as fans who were unable to find shelter suffered in the elements. Nearly 100 people were injured as a result of their exposure to the storm, and the incident prompts consideration of the practicality of erecting more shelter at a facility designed for outdoor entertainment.
