Wisconsin Man Cited for 'Rocking Out' to John Denver

[undeterred]

FOND DU LAC, Wis. — Police responding to a complaint of loud noise have cited a Fond du Lac man for "rocking out" to the music of John Denver. A police who responded to the man's apartment last week could hear Denver's music through the door.

The officer pounded on the door but the man didn't answer. Finally the officer found out the man's name from a neighbor and called to him, bringing the man to the door. When asked why he had the music so loud, the man said he was "rocking out."

The Reporter newspaper in Fond du Lac reports that the 42-year-old was cited for unnecessary loud noise. The ticket could result in a fine of about $210.

The late singer is known for such hits as "Rocky Mountain High" and "Take Me Home, Country Roads."

4. I'm thinking "Thank God I'm A Country Boy", on 11, with a drunken

40 something guy named Duane stomping on the floor and screaming "YEE-HAA".

If he was doing that around here, he might have been shot, and probably not by the police either.

or fired some warning shots or something.

making out with his girlfriend. :shrug:
