All,We weren't trying to use this story to promote the Country Stampede but to put into context what the event is for our readers who may not be familiar with it.We apologize if anyone interpreted that effort as a plug for the event.Tomari

I hate country music and have never heard of these clowns, but if they're mocking Manhattan's airport then they can go straight to hell!!
With news of a second death, do you guys belive Stampede will continue to go on??? Next year will for sure due to schedules and what not, but after that....I have my doubts. http://www.themercury.com/News/article.aspx?articleId=99c9100b20514685b740a606b7284ebb

Because someone randomly rolled an ATV and wasn't wearing a helmet. And another kid had a preexisting blood clot problem and probably passed out and fell too hard on the ground and bleed out?There are better reasons to cancel it, according to this board anyway.If this starts happening year after year, yeah something will change.
The first year some chick stabbed and killed her husband (maybe just bf) with a screwdriver. If that didn't kill stampede, nothing will. If anything, events like this make things more popular as it adds an element of risk to attendance.
I sure hope other schools' fans don't catch wind of these deaths and use them to make fun of us like we do the bonfire.
