Twitch streamer's giveaway sparks mayhem in Union Square
Thousands of people overran Union Square Park and surrounded lanes of traffic Friday as a popular Twitch streamer held a video game giveaway.
This is currently happening now.
This explains the helicopters I hear, I'm not that far away. Idk, says the crowds dispersed an hour ago, so we'll see.
8Yeah, I don't even live in the state and I picked up on it due to my scanner app alerting me to a sudden influx of listeners in the area. It's a great way to hear about events before they get reported on.

What the fuck?
6I never would have imagined that a Twitch streamer could cause this much chaos. Those crowds are huge.
4Well, I guess I've officially hit the "I don't understand today's kids" phase of my life. I'm trying to draw a parallel from my younger days of maybe a Backstreet Boys/N'Sync signing event causing chaos or something, but I feel like most people knew who the Backstreet Boys were even if they wouldn't care about going to one of their events/shows. I've never even HEARD of this streamer until today. Just wild that these streamers have so many diehard fans.
