AAHHH AHHHHHHHH!!!

15 years ago a comedy legend passed away, Sam Kinison. He life was taken by a drunk driver and I will never forgive that person. I'll never forget where I was when I found out. My mom woke me up that saturday morning and told me the bad news. It took a little time for it to sink in cause she had just woken me up.

I consider myself lucky. I was only 16 at the time that he died, but even at 16 I had seen Sam in concert 4 times. He always was playing in Vegas over Memorial Day weekend and that was the time of year that we visited Vegas, so I always pushed to go see him. The first show I ever went to was like an 11pm show at Bally's hotel. I was either 13 or 14, I don't remember, hell I might of even of been 12, but I was there. If this was any other night in Vegas, I would of been asleep at that time of the night and with the time difference between Vegas and home. But not that night, I couldn't wait. He had 3 guys on before him and then Sam hit the stage. He was great that night.

Later on in life I acquired a signed Sam album and I got it framed and it hangs in my office to this day to remind of someone that was taken early. I could go on and on about him and what happened, but I don't want to bore you to death.
