But when the rally ended, the busses couldn't get there or didn't get there due to bad planning. Left the people (many are elderly) stranded in the cold (around 30 degree and in the dark). They started trying to walk to the parking lots while made it worst because they blocked the road for rescue and busses heading their way.
