Thousands of Mac Miller followers gathered final night time at Pittsburgh’s Blue Slide Park, the namesake of his debut album, to memorialize the late rapper, CBS affiliate KDKA reports. Miller’s music performed as tearful followers held candles and left flowers and written messages in tribute. The park’s distinctive slide had obtained a contemporary coat of blue paint earlier within the day. Miller’s grandmother appeared within the night to thank followers.

A petition launched this week goals to have the park—which is a part of the bigger Frick Park—renamed in Mac Miller’s honor. Since his demise Friday, tributes have poured in from Childish Gambino, J. Cole, Fiona Apple, and many, many extra.
