One More Saturday Night

"I was there - this was the day after the Aber Day Kegger, which got the Guinness world record for the greatest number of kegs at on kegger (10,000) - some yahoo from the back of the crowd threw one of the plastic kegger pitchers from the back of the field house (which is a very large basketball stadium - holds several thousand people) and hit Bob Weir right in the forehead. Luckily it didn't hurt him - but it freaked him out enough, that the band didn't play much longer - which was a real bummer, because we were counting on them playing long into the night. Those of us in the front rows were having altogether a different experience. The sound was so wonderful you could hear it all across the campus - I went out to bring back some water to my friends & it was sensational."

"I was at the conert. Bob W was hit by a plastic pitcher (and not Jerry G by a bottle). The pitcher was an Aber Day Keggar pitcher -- each spring back in those days, was a large keggar featuring bands and 5 to 10k people, and, instead of glasses, each person was given a plastic pitcher (yes, believe it or not)."

"First Dead show. Aside from the fact that drunk cowboys do not belong in a Grateful Dead concert, it was a great show. We were about 10 rows back to the right of Bobby Weir, and it was loud, and it was good!!!"
