Jimmy Buffett Music: Officially Dangerous

If you've ever heard a Jimmy Buffett song and thought, "This just makes me want to kill someone" … well, cut it out, because that shit's not funny anymore. A soldier from Fort Bragg, hanging out at a bar in Steamboat Springs, Col., was reportedly killed as a result of a bar fight, instigated when the soldier and a couple of friends put a Buffett song on the jukebox.

The police captain was quoted in the Rocky Mountain News as saying, "(Lopez) and two other individuals put on the song, but two other individuals did not agree with it." The fight escalated outside and Lopez and his two friends were discovered on the street (the soldier's friends only suffered cuts and bruises). The actual song played on the jukebox is unknown, but I'd bet $100 it was "Margaritaville."

I've made no bones about my dislike for Jimmy Buffett's music, but these "critics" took it way too far. Now if it had been Jason Mraz …

I'd place my money on the tune being 'Cheeseburger In Paradise', because come ON. That 'song' makes me want to stab out my eyeballs with a spork.
