Upstairs Lounge Arson had no idea their night out would turn into anything other than a moment of social escapism. During that era, they entered that gay bar knowing full well the dangers of publicly identifying oneself as queer.

The attack happened during that year’s Pride weekend, which had recently been made a tradition in 1971.At 7:56 p.m., an unidentified man rang the buzzer, which was used to indicate when a cab arrived.
