Several people hoping to hear former One Direction singer Louis Tomlinson left a concert venue “covered in welts and bruises” after hail and severe weather struck Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Wednesday.
Videos shared on social media show fans running for cover as hail rained down on them while others waited under an overhang as waters made their way down stairs in a weather event that appeared to cover the historic outdoor venue’s seating with hail.
A spokesperson for Red Rocks told Denver’s Fox 31 that “several inches of hail” were in the seats of the venue.
One concertgoer told the news station that they sought shelter in a bathroom stall for over an hour while another one described seeing people “covered in welts and bruises” due to “golf-ball size” hail.
“Me and my sister had to corner ourselves into a wall with boxes above us from the recycle over our heads to protect us. A few big ones welted us pretty good,” a fan named Mollie told the news station.
