Sungod Stabbing
Anecdotes, Gossip, News

We procured an eye-witness description of the stabbing that occurred in line at Sungod. In true Ghetto Journalism style, here is the AIM conversation that landed in our inbox a couple days ago:

anonymous: i'm standing in line, and i see an argument about three people in front of me
anonymous: this one guy (call him tom) has tried to cut in line
anonymous: since the line is so obscenely long
anonymous: and this other guy (call him john) is pissed
anonymous: so, john starts yelling at tom
anonymous: tom yells back
anonymous: john shoves tom
anonymous: tom shoves john back
anonymous: much macho chest-to-chest posturing occurs
anonymous: then, john throws a blow
anonymous: a really sissy, weak, looping, would make anyone who actually knows how to fight cringe in disgust sort of blow
anonymous: tom throws a flurry of punches (of similar quality) back at john
anonymous: and then john stabs tom
anonymous: quickly, through tom's sweatshirt
anonymous: he stabs him in the upper chest, so it doesnt go in deep
anonymous: ribcage is in the way
anonymous: as far as stabbings go, really, its pretty weak
anonymous: tom's friends pull him away, and he leaves
anonymous: the crowd that had gathered to watch the fight disperses
anonymous: i advance in line
anonymous: few minutes later
anonymous: security is yelling
anonymous: trying to find tom
anonymous: tom comes up to the fence
anonymous: and says, "man, i just got stabbed"
anonymous: pretty nonchalant about it, though
anonymous: police take him away (for questioning and a ride to the hospital, i assume)

We'll leave it up to your judgment to ascertain the veracity of this story.

Some of you may be asking, "What stabbing?" Good question. The Guardian did not mention the incident in their long, monotonous Lights and Sirens, and has refrained from reporting it otherwise—despite knowledge of the scuffle. Anyone know why?
