“shredded hippy parts!”

2007 Reader Submission

5) Summer Jam at Watkins Glen - over 600,132 people

A huge hippy concert called Summer Jam was organized and held on July 28th, 1973 at the Grand Prix auto circuit in Watkins Glen, New York. Although tickets were available for purchase, a dirty hippy named Artie Wilson spread a rumor that “this jam is free!” So that being said, every stinking, bearded, draft-dodging, toothless loser from coast to coast headed to Watkins Glen. The Grateful Dead opened the show by playing for five hours – with two of those hours being a freaking drum solo. The Allman Brothers, and the Band also played for hours on end. There were naked chicks everywhere. Gregg Allman allegedly fathered three children at the show. The best part, however, was when a dirty hippy decided to make a grand entrance by parachuting into the show. He jumped from the plane holding a stick of lit dynamite that he tossed as he jumped. He thought the boom would make people look up. He forgot that the dynamite fell at the same rate of speed – right next to him. It blew him to bits and showered the crowd with “shredded hippy parts!” Good times indeed.

This one is so old that I thought for sure it would be an Urban Legend but gosh darned if it didn't turn out to be true! Shredded Hippy definitely deserves a Darwin. Thanks for ferreting this one out, Tim

If only he thought to light the dynamite and drop it AFTER he had opened his chute. But I guess hippies aren't known for thinking things through logically... Thanks for sending this oldie but goodie in, Tim!
