I’d argue that a “no crowdsurfing” sign would, for a punk band, be like a red rag to a bull… Given that she’d attended lots of their shows in the past, I think she’d have had a better gauge of how likely crowdsurfing was, sign or no.
I’m not blaming her at all - I meant that she’d have a good idea of whether or not the singer is a crowdsurfer, regardless of a venue sign being present or not. It’s either the singer’s fault for launching into the crowd with absolutely no warning, or the rest of the crowd for seeing the singer coming and scattering from around her.
There were signs that says “no crowd surfing” in th venue so I think she didn’t expect the singer to jump.

That’s a lot of mental gymnastics to blame the victim. Not cool.

The red flag and bull myth has already been debunked, bulls will attack anything that moves no matter the color.
