Exiting Invesco Field and finding her shuttle was quite an ordeal for Meriden City Councilor Hilda Santiago Thursday.With about 84,000 people packed inside the stadium, all were looking for a way out at the close of the Democratic National Convention, and Santiago found herself lost in the crowd.
"It was horrific," she said. "No one knew where they were going."
Santiago said she was lost for about 45 minutes before she found her shuttle and her Connecticut friends. During that time, she was on the lookout for prairie dogs.
When she first arrived in Denver, Santiago thought the prairie dogs were cute. Denver residents, however, warned her that the animals carried disease. They come out at night, and I was scared I would run into one, she said.
