The collapse happened during an employee appreciation event Cintas was holding.

The company added it was cooperating with local officials on the investigation into the collapse but did not address how the people injured were doing.Eddie Zawilla owns and operates EZ Tent Rentals. His company was not involved in Thursday's collapse.

Zawilla said those in the industry are talking about the accident, but many have already ruled out the weather as a factor. While investigators work to determine the exact cause, Zawilla said judging from the video, the tent was compromised due to what they call in the tent industry ballast, essentially meaning it was not weighted down properly.
