Two persons sustained “minor” injuries when a portion of a compound wall caved in at M A Chidambaram stadium here on Wednesday during sale of tickets for the cricket World Cup matches on February 20, police said. The incident occurred following a melee amongst the ticket-seekers, they said. TNCA officials described the incident as “minor” and said ticket sales were not disrupted due to the mishap. They said about 50 people of the nearly 3,000-odd strong crowd suddenly pushed towards the wall, resulting in a portion of it caving in. http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/Chennai/article1148914.ece :facepalm:

As usual these people don't learn anything. I watched it on a news channel and it looked like thousands of people had come to buy tickets and there was just 1 ticket window :headshake:
