I love pits where everyone is helpful and just want to have a good time.
Like just having some wild fun, but once someone drops, everybody helps them up. Or immediately help someone who gets hurt or wants to leave the pit for some reason.
I also love it when someone drops something and this tiny circle gets created to help make space for the person searching. Or when you find something that looks important and lost you just hold it in the air and scream what your holding. I miraculously retrieved my glasses that way, that was the first and last time I wore my glasses in a pit :).
I have seem this exact scenario, in the 90s, at I think the Dead Milkmen’s final show. It was such an iconic moment. Glad to know it wasn’t a one-off!
I used to wear my glasses in pits like every time. The first time I dropped them I got them back, but never again. I'm also old now, so it is less of an issue.
