Fan War At Ozzfest

(Blabbermouth) A MyFOXColorado blogger who goes by the name "Scribe2" has issued the following report: The Ozzfest at Coors Amphitheatre [in Denver, Colorado] on July 28 erupted into an absolutely ridiculous and shameful war of thrown items between the lawn-seat visitors and the reserved-seat visitors during the STATIC-X set. Plastic bottles, plastic cups, plastic "yard" glasses and chunks of turf were hurled from primarily mid-lawn as far as a third of the width of the second orchestra section. A few shoes and other items were also observed in flight. The fracas took on an especially sinister note when half-full bottles and empty bottles and cups were jammed full with sod, creating dangerous missiles. It started with a few bottles and cups being tossed into the seats from the lawn. They were mostly ignored or met by glares. However, crowd-think set in and the casual provocations became a hail of detritus from above. The people in the seats responded as comes naturally: in kind. So began an unstated war of the classes.
