TwitchCon is due to take place in Las Vegas in October. But people on Twitter have now hit out at the event organizers for not offering free, available water for all guests. Twitch streamer Lowco took to Twitter to criticize TwitchCon Party organizers for not offering an unlimited amount of free water to guests attending the desert event. With average temperatures in Las Vegas being around 80 degrees Fahrenheit in October, as long as there\u2019s not a heatwave, Lowco argued that all guests at the event should be offered free water. At the moment, it\u2019s only the party ticket holders that are offered free water. Lowco tweeted a photo of what\u2019s included with the $100 party add-on, which is purchased on top of the $149 tickets to TwitchCon. This included: outdoor festival grounds with DJs, dueling axes, an asylum bar and arcade, five iron golf, meow wolf\u2019s omega mart, museum fiasco, wink world, and 3 drink tickets to be used for water, soda, or alcoholic beverages. She commented: \u201cThe TwitchCon Party is $100 and includes 3 free waters! Nice!\u201d People call out TwitchCon for dangerous safety issues In response, she got comments arguing against her, with one person saying: \u201cNot everyone drinks alcohol, they\u2019re just letting people know other options are available. Omega Mart is usually $50+ by itself. The need to be negative is wild.\u201d However, Lowco hit back by saying: \u201cNot having free water at an event that costs $100 during dangerously high temperatures is absolutely worth complaining about.\u201d Most other Twitter users seemed to agree, with one person saying: \u201cAgreed. Water stations, water fountains, etc. Should all be free and highly accessible. It doesn\u2019t have to be bottled water, but it is a safety issue with high temps.\u201d Another person added: \u201cIf it\u2019s bottled water, it\u2019s standard to charge at attractions, but I\u2019d agree that tap should be free if available.\u201d It does not say on TwitchCon\u2019s website whether there will be other means of water on site, or if the three drinks tickets will be all that\u2019s offered. This is not the first time TwitchCon has been under fire. In 2019, the organizers were criticized for leaving drinks out unattended for guests to take.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Streamer hits out at TwitchCon for \u201cdangerous safety issues\u201d in upcoming event Twitch, Lowco\/InstagramStreamer Lowco has criticized TwitchCon party organizers for not offering guests \u201cenough\u201d free water as only three drinks tickets are given to each ticket holder.
