In $2021,$ tragedy struck at a music festival called Astroworld. Ten $(10)$ people between the ages of $9$ and $27$ were killed. Read this article about the incident.

Several lawsuits have been filed against Live Nation $($the promoter and ticket seller$)$ of the festival. Some of these lawsuits have settled; others are getting ready to go to court soon.

Live Nation likely has responded to these lawsuits by arguing that each ticketholder agreed to waive liability when they purchased their tickets online.

Specifically, each ticketholder entered into a contract with Live Nation that had the following clause in it:

"You voluntarily assume all risks and danger incidental to the event for which the ticket is issued, whether occurring before, during, or after the event, and you waive any claims for personal injury or death against us$."$
