A 20-Mile Entanglement

Sold-out is an understatement when describing the turnout at the Woodstock event. The 600-acre farm got filled to the brim, causing a logistical issue. Cars created a huge snarl-up on highway 17B, and the traffic jam went on for over 20 miles.

Woodstock caused a spectacle in the upstate New York locale, which housed an estimated 3,900 locals. They were naturally baffled by the massive gathering, and it wasn’t peace and love for them, exactly. Most people had to ditch their vehicles and proceed to the farm on foot, while others resorted to climbing up their rides or elevated areas to get a glimpse of the concert from a distance.
