Travis Scott attended Dave & Buster’s party after Astroworld tragedy: report

Travis Scott attended an after party at a Dave & Buster’s following the Astroworld Festival tragedy — but he was unaware at the time that several concertgoers were trampled to death, a report said.

The rapper “didn’t know the severity of the situation when he arrived at the party,” a source told TMZ, but once he was informed, he immediately left.

Eight concertgoers were killed during the Astroworld music festival on Nov. 5, 2021.

The after-party was thrown by Drake, who made a surprise appearance at Friday’s opening day of the festival at Houston’s NRG Park.

According to TMZ, Drake did not know the extent of the tragedy until he went to the arcade to party.

Eight people were killed and hundreds more were injured by concertgoers who trampled on each other during the packed show.

In separate statements, both rappers expressed their grief over the deaths.

A concertgoer who was at the concert and claimed he was seriously injured by the mayhem is also suing them both.

Kristian Paredes, 23, from Austin, alleges in the lawsuit that the rappers “put profits over their attendees and allowed the deadly show to go on” and “incited the crowd.”
