Well... Jimmy Buffet didn't do it. Nor did his song. Only a bunch of jerks who decided they didn't LIKE the song.

You're right - people can be pretty stupid when they are drunk.

The Tap House is a favorite bar among the violent idiot set that visits Steamboat Springs. A few years back a fellow at a bar down the street got himself all lit up during a Broncos game and head-butted the wall, which was made of river rock. He broke his neck and is now paralyzed from the neck down.

Those must have been some big boys as the victim was 82nd active and special forces. So sad on so many levels.

Reminds me of the time I was introduced to Jimmy Buffet...
The barmaid handed me a quarter and told me to select U-2 on the Juke box. It was "Lets Get Drunk & Screw".
My outcome was a bit different than for the soldier.


May he rest in piece. And may the a-holes who did this rot in jail for a very long time.

I guess fighting is going to happen. You don't see it so much as you get older. Most of the older types just walk out when they see it, I suppose.

You hear of it here in the UK often enough. The use of knives seems to be getting more common here.

It seems so damn wasteful. A man is dead. Over what I wonder? Probably a good soldier, too.

I'd just like to know what Buffet song you could get so p***ed off about to kill someone over. This really is tragic.
