"Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb has declared a state of emergency ahead of the April 8 solar eclipse in anticipation of massive crowds coming to see the celestial phenomenon.
The last time Indiana saw a total solar eclipse was in 1869, and the next total solar eclipse visible in the state is not expected to happen until 2099. As a result, Holcomb wrote, "it is anticipated the State of Indiana will see a significant influx of several hundred thousand visitors to witness, what will be for nearly all, a once-in-a-lifetime event." https://abc7chicago.com/indiana-state-of-emergency-eclipse-solar-line-totality-2024-path-google-map/14612308
Will some people go berserk just because of an eclipse? Some viewing places might get too crowded and violence might start up.
