University of South Alabama student and football player Anthony Mostella died in a June 13 motorcycle crash. The one-vehicle accident took place in St. Clair County, Ala., about 40 miles outside of Birmingham. Mostella, 22, was a junior running back on USA’s 2009 inaugural football team.
I am a repeat attendee of Tennessee’s annual concert phenomenon known as Bonnaroo. For the uninformed, there are two major factors to the festival experience: crowd and accommodations. The style of bands booked dictates the crowd. I was not in attendance when Metallica performed in 2008 – a hippie could be trampled by tatted-up metal-heads faster than you can say “… and nothing else matters.
