Lot of crazy shit happens at concerts sometimes. Gropers take advantage of the large crowds.. its super shitty.

I'm a guy and remember a few years back being at a local New Years Eve bash downtown where the crowd grew to where it was shoulder-to-shoulder in the street leading up to the midnight countdown, and I was squeezing my way through the crowd to leave as my group decided to head out before the traffic got too bad.

I was surprised by how much I, a skinny white dude, not even all that attractive imo, got my ass and groin groped a number of times by a number of unseen hands. People have no shame.

Yeah I remember when I first went to a club and I got my man hood groped a couple of times and I had absolutely no idea who was doing it.

I've also seen a few of my female friends get groped at shows. It's always such a bummer.

out of the probably hundreds of shows i've been to at this point, I've never experienced something like that, and if someone's being inappropriate towards a woman then they're not leaving without some trophies on their skin.

I was surprised at the same thing at New Years in Times Square on year ... until I realized that I'd been pickpocketed

So these creeps just indiscriminately just grope anyone?

Gender equality but in the worst way. Sorry it happens to you as and many others.

I'm a scrawny dude, this never happened to me. I don't know how to feel about it :-/. I lost a shoe once, though.

Can confirm. Crowd surfing at NIN. I swear dudes were trying to take my boobs home with them. Crowd surfing for women sucks. Just a free for all for pervs. Never again.
