Purple Tunnel of Doom

(via Magic Shell) Sen. Feinstein is investigating what led to the "purple" ticket fiasco at Tuesday's inauguration.

The specific incidents include the report that a decision was made to cut off access to Purple and Blue standing areas, which meant that a large number of ticketholders could not reach their designated areas.

I also aware of the incident involving the 3 rd Street Tunnel, where thousands of people were stuck for several hours and apparently without any law enforcement presence.
