11:01 pm
the conditions improve. that is, people could start to leave tomorrow, weather permitting. this gives you a better idea of where everyone is stranded. there in the black rock desert north of reno. most people can't get a cell phone signal making it a challenge to communicate. we begin our coverage tonight with abc seven news reporter cornell bernard. >> we had planned on leaving yesterday, but you know, it seems that's not that's not the plan. >> matt schuster from san francisco is patiently waiting for the weather to change in black rock city, home to burning man. >> so right now, how some some, you know, it's a light shower. it's schuster's 19th year attending the counterculture arts festival. >> and this year, torrential rain has stranded tens of thousands of burners. it's made the desert floor better known as the playa. a muddy mess. it's really not a good decision to try to drive. organizers say driver out, even walking out is not advised. >> it is clay. it's even worse than than mud. so. so it fills
11:02 pm
in all the grooves of your tires and you literally have no tread. you know, to leave. >> the mud is so thick. sculptures of mud, people are being made burning man attendees have been told to shelter in place and conserve fuel, food and water. >> they shut the water down. i'm walking around helping pull power cables out of the ground so they don't get stuck in the mud. and all we're doing is kitchen and drinking water. that's it. authorities shut down the entrance to the campgrounds for the remainder of the event, which ends monday. >> we might not be leaving here until thursday because it takes usually a two to full days for the playa to dry off. >> matt schuster is willing to wait as long as it takes, he says. for now, there's a community spirit with people helping one another. >> so we're here and we're, you know, we're we're we're hanging out with our friends and we're we're still having a good time in san francisco. >> cornell, bernard, abc7 news. >> beautiful rainbow there. organizers decided to close off the festival to vehicles after one death was reported. investigators have not released any details on the person who
11:03 pm
that person may be, but did say the death happened during the quote, heavy rain event. some people are making it out tonight so soha zaidi, that is of san francisco shared this video with me. she got to reno and stopped at an in-n-out. but one look at her boots and some of the people in that restaurant gives you an idea of the situation. everyone was in there absolutely covered in mud. she thought about staying but was running low on supplies. she does tell me that while their rv was stuck in the mud for six hours at one point they are burners and would go back in a heartbeat. we are live for happy eve all the mud, sunday services went on at burning man, the playa choir did perform this morning. the video is a little blurry, but we do have a couple of photos as well from the
11:04 pm
performance. even in the rainy, wet conditions. us now to abc7 news reporter stephanie sierra early this morning she talked with jamila foster about her experience in black rock city. here's a portion of their conversation from early sunday. >> um, it's been very wet and very muddy, but we've also been having a really good time. um, we're all helping each other out a lot, making sure we all have food and water and, you know, tightening our, our tarps around our tents and or moving into someone else's tent who's offered if our tents are wet. my tent just started to leak a little last night, but not too bad. and i have a camp mate who has already said, you're welcome to move in here. if you need to. you know, um. uh really just kind of staying present and taking care of ourselves as much as we can while also being a really good time. >> we've heard from burning man organizers. there's no estimate on when the roads will be dry
11:05 pm
enough to allow vehicles to leave safely. are people anxious to get out? >> i'm sure that there are some people that are anxious, but when you come out here, you kind of come out with an idea that you really don't know what to expect. that's part of what i think brings a lot of us out here and while it's obviously not convene, it's also kind of what we signed up for. and i think there's also a very, um, there's a large awareness amongst a lot of us that, you know, when you have to walk through a new obstacle or an experience, you often come out on the other side with some wonderful new lesson or just feeling stronger in life in general. so i think we're all kind of keeping that mentality about us because we know that after all of this is over, we're still going to probably look back on it as one of our favorite experiences ever. >> burning man has a lengthy history with roots here in the bay area. it started nearly 40 years ago, june 1986, as a small
11:06 pm
ritual on baker beach in san francisco with just 20 guests. they burned an eight foot tall effigy, the burning man. the event launched a celebration of community art, self-expression and self-reliance. five years later, 1991, it was moved to its current location, black rock city in northwest nevada. it still drew a relatively small crowd of just 250 people. by the year 2000. the crowd had grown to more than 25,000 campers and the burning man had grown to more than 50ft tall. in 2014, on 105 foot tall, effigy was burned, the tallest ever for that year's event drew nearly 66,000 campers. tragedy struck in 2017, though. a 41 year old man threw himself into the flames of the burning monument. but he died a day later. from there, the size of the burn monument got smaller each year, but the crowd size did not peaking at more than 79,000
11:07 pm

anchor abruptly closed this past july. abc seven news reporter lina howland spoke with the workers behind the beer. >> with the pull of a tap handle, there's a renewed sense of hope for anchor brewing company. >> so the goal of the beer is that we're raising awareness that the union group has a mission to purchase back the brewery and turn it into a worker cooperative. >> anchor brewing company, often referred to as america's first craft brewery, closed its doors back in july after 127 years in business. ever since a group of its former employees have been working on a plan to buy and reopen the san francisco brewery. >> it's important to us that we kind of support each other because seeing the dominoes fall, breweries closing is a really scary thought, especially for a brand new brewery that's just opened up. but in the end, they're not our competitors. they're people that we look up to and they're an inspiration. that's why newlyweds philippe and wendy bravo, co-owners and co-founders of foxtail fermentation project based out of san jose, came up with a solidarity ale. >> it's based off of california

hollister and ruhstaller in sacramento. >> one of us can't do it. but if we all join together, we can do a lot in san jose. >> lena howland, abc seven news. >> labor day weekend has traditionally been a good time to shop for deals, but this labor day things are a bit trickier than usual. first, the good news about car sales. after a year of supply shortages and soaring prices, inventory is now on the rise. this weekend, ford, toyota, nissan and other automakers are offering low or 0% finance buying dodge and kia have cash back deals on certain vehicles. that trend doesn't apply to some other industries, though. experts say an economy in transition makes deal hunting a little more difficult. the sort of sales around labor day perhaps, are a little bit more conservative than years past. >> it's hard to determine whether it's just a reflection of the inflated prices or whether it's a reflection of retailers being more reluctant to put more stuff on sale.
11:39 pm
>> sales can be found on some seasonal items, but with another amazon prime event coming up in october and black friday a couple of months away, experts say hold off if you can. us customs agents say they recently confiscated illegal seahorses and snakes. agents at washington's dulles airport reported finding 77 dry seahorses as 50 small boxes of herbal medicine. five dead snakes, five jars of snail ointment and illegal pork products. the items were found in two different travelers bags several days apart from vietnam time, the both travelers could now face fines. live with kelly and mark is on abc seven. the new season featuring the now permanent fixture, mark consuelos, premieres at 9 a.m. this coming tuesday. abc seven entertainment reporter sandy kenyon has a look at what's to come on the 36th year of live.
