As a professional firefighter for over 18 years, may I humbly suggest that if this continues to be a problem and if management does not address the issue, one might want to call the local fire dept and explain to them the concern.

At least here in NY, every place of public assembly has an occupancy limit posted on the wall. It is based on many things, including sq. footage, number of exit doors, etc. Exceeding that number is a violation. The local fire dept can stop by there during this peak time and address the issue with management.

You are wise to notice......most folks do not have a clue when it comes to fire safety.
