Yesterday:
MINA, Saudi Arabia - Muslim pilgrims tripped over luggage while hurrying to ritually stone the devil Thursday, causing a crush that trampled at least 345 people to death in the latest stampede to mar Islam's annual hajj. Saudi authorities have sought for years to ease the flow of increasingly mammoth crowds, but the tragedy underlined the difficulty in managing one of the biggest religious events in the world, which this time drew more than 2.5 million pilgrims.
100 Years from now:
Child: Tell me one more time, how did great-grandfather die?
Parent: He tripped over luggage while hurrying to ritually stone the devil.
