The word ‘rave’ has been used by the media in a highly sensationalist fashion, and the goings on of Goa are written about with a sense of schadenfreude every time some poor dancer on the beach gets arrested. But strange things do occur at Goa raves at the end of the day, just as they do at all other parts of the world. People on Reddit had a few things to say about the matter. Check it!
