Insane Clown Posse Being Sued By Fan Injured At Concert
Filed under: Music Minute > Legal Matters
John Antonelli is suing rap rock duo Insane Clown Posse after being struck by a launched soda bottle at their show in North Dakota back in June 2007. The bottle was thrown into the audience by ICP member Violent J and hit Antonelli in the face, fracturing the bone beneath his right eye.
Antonelli is seeking $50,000 in damages and is also charging the venue with insufficient security and "control" of Violent J.
We're surprised Antonelli took his sweet time, and even more surprised that someone would actually admit to seeing an ICP concert…in North Dakota, of all places!
The trial will take place July 2009.

I think it's stupid that that dude is suing them… I mean, come on. You're going to a concert… You should know that shit is gonna get fucked up! But anyways, to all the stupid asses that are trying to say that ICP is the greatest "band" ever… You guys are fucking dumb. ICP SUCKS. But I don't hate their music as much as I hate their fans… Seriously… You're all stupid as hell, guys!
Re: Bizzo –
they may give faygo a bad name but who has kep faygo goin???? ICP dumb ass… ICP buys out there factory like every year… so how you gonna say they give faygo a bad name when they are the ones that are paying for the signs and shit by buying there product you stupid fuck
Re: allyally420 –
All 50,000
Re: twiztidfreekshow6 – tv isnt always truthful. they often exclude stuff. and a few people on tv doesnt represnt everyone who uses it. my friend almost died because her pot was laced with cocaine. just because some people stay safe doesnt mean everyones safe. its just like cars. just because some person goes their whole life without an accident doesnt mean everyones going to be free of dying in a wreck.
if you wanna use pot go for it. its your life.
i just know that i saw how destructive it was with my friends and how i have an addictive personality and i almost became a pill addict that im going to stay pot free.
besides i dont wanna waste money of something like that thats gone in 5 minutes.
Re: Prymordial – actually i would. and have.
and do you guys really just want to be associated with being violent and fucking people up? thats not a great way to live life. no offense but i think its people like you who say yall are going to fuck people up that give the rest of you a bad image.
GetlostDancing…You make sense I'll give that too you..partly..If you knew me t hough I"m not violent..I'm violent when I have to be..Just like you..What most motherfuckers don't get is that Being a juggalo is beyond music….you might not see it bro but in reality Juggalo=Peace.
Re: Prymordial – unfortunately i dont see if because all of the juggalos ive come across have major major major attitude problems. its sad that your whole entire group has to carry the burden of the image those few people project
well to answer all of you guys' close-minded question of who listens to this "trash" over 10,000 people world-wide listen to it. icp has been throwing faygo for yearsss, probably longer than some of you have been alive. if you even know who icp is and plan on going to a show you should know what to expect. this kid is not the first and will not be the last to catch an ACCIDENTAL faygo to the head. he's just a greedy little punk lookin to get paid. and i agree that if this kid really had such a problem with the now infamous flying faygo he should've taken care of it a long time ago. not a year later.
wow i am so proud now that there are so many of you fighting back. not everyone who calls themself a juggalo is a criminal, pot smoker, or gang member. its just a part of my life. i have mad love for all the psychopathic rappers and i dont give a fuck what anyone thinks. at least i know how to have fun and live my life to the fullest instead of wasting my time telling people its wrong to love what they love! mmfcl!
if i could even BE AT an icp concert to get hit in the head with faygo i would be sooooooooo happy. broken bone is just a bonus!
ALSO: to everyone who positively replied to my shit that i wrote on here I LOVE YOU MMFCL get at it myspace.com/allylikesdrugs
if you replied negatively ftfo! im not even wasting my time on haters. peace!
Re: allyally420 – pot, crime, and gang banging isnt gonna help you live life to the fullest when your behind bars
Re: allyally420 – jesus christ your life aspirations are overwhelming. if only my life could be complete with pot and getting a broken bone from a soda bottle.
oh wait.
i have real aspirations.
nice myspace names.
have fun in jail or rehab. or both if your lucky
:)
Re: getlostdancing –
i have an idea, why dont you do what your name says and GET LOST? that would be neat. i smoke weed, i enjoy getting high, i enjoy music about killing bitches like you, living forever, and spending good times with good friends, i enjoy the shit out of my life….. what more is there to say? ive got a great job, a network of friends and acquaintances and thats all i need. im not suicidal, i dont cut myslef, i dont drink my cares away or use hard drugs like meth or xtc. having said this i really dont need to defend myself.m a relatively happy, normal person. why do you stereotype juggalos as criminals when only a few of them are? thats like saying that all gay men talk with a lisp and listen to elton john, right perez?
read violent j's "behind the paint" and gain a new outlook on life.
Re: allyally420 – gay men lisping is a new one.
all im saying is that i believe pot heads and druggies are pathetic. ive seen what bad things its done to my friends and i dont appreciate people like you and icp bring pot into the spotlight where children can be influenced into doing it. and its a gateway drug because the high from pot wont satisfy you until you die at the age of 80.
i dont see why youd want to pride yourself in the traits you mentioned because they arent very admirable.
and i dont see how you can enjoy living your life if your high because you arent living in reality.
life is about more then getting high and there is so much you miss out on while being high.
but its your life. have fun destroying it.
Re: getlostdancing – Alow me to speak my mind on your pathetic point of view, For one if you listen to any mainstream "rapper" they promote more weed then ICP ever has. Along with rock and roll and metal but rock and roll advocate cocain, and heroine, and drinking.
Re: getlostdancing – Oh and by the way i Have smoked weed for quite some time and i lived more in 3 months then you probally had in a whole year. And i'm a down ass juggalo for 10 plus years and if you can open your mind and listen and coprehend to what is being said you might be afraid of finding something out about yourself your afraid to admit.
Re: getlostdancing – And i am not a "THUG" "GANGSTA"or "White Trash". if you lable juggalos as that then you might as well say any one who listens to rap is a gang banger and drug dealer, anyone who listens to country fucks their family so realiser what you are doing. and I may have gotten high during school but you know what i can read i can write oh and i'm not a complete retard either.
Re: getlostdancing – And if you want to get into the whole killing poeple aspect, do you watch horror movies? It's the same as that but with words as your visual effect giding you through a story. And yes WE LO's and LETTEs are family, when was the last time you walked down the street and someone noticed you by a tshirt with a band name on it and had respect for you. you just spout off at the mouth flapping your gums just to try and judge some one, your life is so boring you gotta talk shit on others
Re: getlostdancing – and (not to affend the emo's) atleast the lot of us don't cut ourselves and listen to depressing music making it worse, we get our frustration out in the music. and if ICP sucked so much riddle me this how is it that they are still around and have such a successful business all you are doing is hating on someone who is better off then you are and your envyous, so to end it off don't try to come back with a stupid little reply about shit you don't understand and don't take the time to understand just say fuck it leave it be and don't listen if you don't like it don't make judgements about things you only assume about. MMFCL to all the juggalos and Lettes , and hate is for poeple who have nothing better to do. PEACE___-
Not all ICP fans are drugged losers, with no jobs and no futures. I for one am not. I have a lot going for me. And just because I like their music doesn't classify me as a "stereotypical" fan. But that's why us family got to stick together because of all the ignorant close minded people…like almost everyone that has posted on this article. And they only have 5 fans??? Please…tell that to the 10,000+ they bring into their annual gatherings and the millions they have made no thanks to the mainstream. ICP has been around for a long ass time and has earned everything they have on their own and with the support of their fans. A lot of people should really do some research before they start talking about things they don't know the facts on. I love the family and wouldn't change it ever coming into my life. MCL to all you out there! And I hope those close minded individuals could open up and see past stereotypes.
Re: Dafatmanjuggalo – yea i listen to a shitload of rap. and the worst i hear is about trapping. and just cuz someones trapping doesnt mean theyre using since usually dealers dont use, they just sell.
Re: Dafatmanjuggalo – well if what you call living is smoking pot and stuff then we just have different standards of living. i have a great life and dont need drugs to enhance that. they would just inhibit how i live. but thats just me i guess. so maybe by your standards youve lived more in 3 months but in my standard ive been living life to the fullest, drug free, including pain killers cuz i quit that.
and you learn reading and writing in elementary school so thats not going to help your smoking pot in hs.
and im not saying every single juggalo is like that but every single one ive come across is extremely white trash, obnoxious, rude, inconsiderate, and a little on the mentally ill side. but thats like 20 out of 10,000 so maybe the ones i knew were the few bad apples. idk. all i know is that they had major attitude problems.
and i dont watch horror movies so that points lost on me. i dont like them. i dont see how you can enjoy watching someone be tortured and killed like they show in those movies.
i guess im the only person who doesnt want anyone talking to me about my tshirt. my bf will compliment peoples band tshirts and its wierd to me. so sorry. another point lost on me.
Re: STLette614 – if they sell their shirts in hot topic then guess what. THEYRE MAINSTREAM!
anyways maybe we think you guys are ignorant and close minded. just because some people wear american eagle and hollister you think theyre rich preppy spoiled brats. im sure all of yall would call me that and think i havent struggled for more then 30 seconds in my life and the worst things that have ever happened to me was being broken up with, not getting $50 the moment i ask for it, and not being able to use my car for 2 weeks cuz i was grounded. if you knew me youd know differently. ive probably struggled more then alot of your little "family" of juggalos.
point is. we arent the only people out there who uses sterotypes. every group, whether accepted or looked down upon, stereotypes others. so dont act all victimized because i know you do it too.
and fyi. you guys arent a real family. family lasts forever. i give yall another 10 years max.
peace nukkas
Re: getlostdancing – I don't really consider selling shirts in Hot Topic mainstream. You ever think it could be for convenience? Like for the juggalos who don't have debit or credit cards to purchase straight from Psychopathic?
And no, I wouldn't judge you because of what you wear. I try my best to judge people because I know I don't like when people do it to me. You may have struggled in your life. I never said you hadn't. But everyone in this world has struggles at one time or another. I never said anyone's struggles wre greater than anyone else.
You may not look at it as family and that's fine. But to those who know what it means, it's stronger than the love from your own blood family at times. Psychopathic is not for everyone and I'm not trying to force it upon anyone in any way.
Re: STLette614 – And no, I wouldn't judge you because of what you wear. I try my best not to judge people because I know I don't like when people do it to me.
Sorry I missed a word but I'm sure most of you got what I meant.
Re: texasangel – yea thats the type of bitch shit juggalos do.
Re: KaleyHitler – also true
dont get me wrong i am not hating. i will admit i used to be a juggalo but one day soon you guys will do what i did and grow up and realize that they aren't your family half of them aren't even your homies. the second you don't help them out they'll turn on you. they”ll be the ones quickest to screw you over.
a few of my homies still be calling them selves that so i can't be hating on them cause they actually have respect for them selves and others. they don't smoke weed all they do is drink but who cares about that?
and all the other juggalos i see around where i live are straight up peices of shit. im not saying all are im saying a lot of the ones i know are. one personal thing i now is like 8 of em jumoed my homie at the mall one day. so if yall consider 8 on 1 a fair fight then juggalos are great citizens
Re: getlostdancing – the only thing you have to say about juggalos is they do drugs. grow up seriously. i've read several comments (most from you) saying juggalos smoke pot and if that's how they wanna live their lives than blah blah blah whatever. also to make this known the shirts they sell in hot topic are not strictly a psychopathic records trademark. that's what hatchetgear is for. have you heard of that? no because it's beneath the streets and over your head. and the juggalos have lasted longer than anybody except maybe the rolling stones. (who by the way should've quit a long time ago) icp's first c.d. came out in 1989 and they're still making music. they're also in 2 other music groups on psychopathic records. now please tell me another artist who has accomplished this? being in 3 music groups at the same time? nobody. in 10 years (i hate to tell you this) but there will just be more of us freaks and weirdos roaming the world.
Re: ismejae – i'm sorry that you've had such a bad experience with people who call themselves juggalos. a realllllllllll juggalo would never do something like that. i apologize for their stupidity.
Re: KaleyHitler – we're stupid? you should really expand your vocabulary past ass. take a hint from an educated woman "your opinion matters to you." remember that dear. nobody else, but you.
Re: ismejae – thats the point i was thinking. idc if people want that "family" but really my whole thing was i feel bad for the people who are invested in that "family" because it may not last forever. i mean. if someone steals someone elses bf or gf or fails to pay back money then its quite possible someone will get shunned from this group they call family. its a conditional family in my opinion. and i just feel bad for whoever gets their families backs turned on them because i know what thats like to have family to dissappoint and hurt you. except mine was blood family. alcoholic grandmothers are a piece of work.
Re: dj_kay – i never said theyre all on drugs. i said the ones i knew where. and then a few on here admitted to drug use.
i know there will always be freaks and wierdos roaming around and i dont care. i just care about the messages they send out and the behavior they promote.
icp has some violent music. and as with most music, that influences very moldable vulnerable young minds out there. and if icp's music encourages violence in those kids and they have their own problems and tie it together with a bow and act on it then theres a problem.
the worlds a shitty ass place. but theres no need to encourage stuff that will start more problems.
i agree on the rolling stones thing though. theyre a bit old and overrated and have stayed passed their welcome.
First off ima juggalette and i think this shit is ridiculous.What true juggalo would sue their fav band for getting hit with a faygo bottle.Stop bein a lil bitch,get the fuck over it and move on.Honestly if that shit happened to me i'd get ma boo boo fixed and be on with it..it's just another kewl story i could tell ma friends..lol.I mean come on $50,000 for fracture of the bone in ur eye..Cry me a fuckin river dude,if you were a true juggalo you wouldn't be doin this..You'd go on with ur life and get over it..I hate people who take the juggalo family for advantage,expecially people who claim their family and turn around and fuck us over.This isn't a juggalo,hypothetically this is a kid who listened to icp for two months,met some kewl ass juggalo homie's went to a concert and didn't expect to it bein this crazzi..guess what!we're crazzi as fuck and what do you expect at the concerts,they've been throwin faygo bottles for years.Stop cryin and get on with ur life
mmfwcl
Re: getlostdancing – yeah i mean when are they gonna retire already? that's the thing there's always a bad apple or just people who have different "recreational" activities. the thing with the violent lyrics is that they were wrote that way to draw in disturbed people and the type of people who would like that type of music to teach them of better things. if you google the lyrics to the unveiling you may be very surprised with what you find.
Re: getlostdancing – i agree they do make violent music. but most of the hip-hop music is violent vulgar about drug use or degrading to women. it's what music is. now im not advocating violence because of the influence of music. but thats how music is
Re: ismejae – i agree with that but i just think people dont realize the effect they have on people. luckily lately the rap im hearing is about money. maybe encourage a better economy.
Re: dj_kay – i can understand that. ive never been good at picking up the hidden meanings under songs. like rise against songs have all these meanings about peace and fair trade and animal rights that i wouldnt have picked up on.
im sorry that your group has this bad image because of a few people. mean things have been said to me because im catholic and a few dipshit priests had to go be pedophiles. when people do stupid things they dont realize the affects it has on others and how those people will be looked upon which sucks. because im sure not all of you are the trashy people i know.
and i know. i think once a group has members that reach 60 its time to let go of living in the past and the youth they used to have. cuz i dont really know anyone who wants to watch grandpas hop around on stage.
Re: getlostdancing – yea a lot of rappers talk about hoe much money they got but more than half of them that do talk about how they get it from selling drugs or other illegal activities
i mean how
Re: getlostdancing – i'm glad i could help you understand the heinous music a little more. and as you said people are always gonna stereotype a group depending on how the media depicts that certain group of people. fuck the media.
Re: getlostdancing – ok all i'm saying is this if you don't want kids to act on the violent behavior depicted in music and tv then talk to the children and they won't. and if they do they are stupid poeple who take everything they see or hear to heart and shouldn't be allowed to walk the public streets. And mainstream is considered constent radio play such as Eminem and willie nelson or some shit they don't have that so the only way kids find out about it is word of mouthand internet so you gotta search for it. mcl. rolling stones 4 retirement
Re: getlostdancing –
YOU my friend, you just contradict yourself over and over and over and over again. i am literally BORED of reading your shit because you keep saying the same thing. really? are you still fighting this? do you think that by telling me that im a piece of crap that im going to change my life? NO WAY because for one, youre wrong. i have a great job, im done with school and looking forward to starting college where i will start my training to be licensed for childcare not to mention almost a year of in-home child care experience and a worked a year at taco bell on my plate and im only 18. you think all juggalos are stupid rednecks or something. i was born in washington. my parents were together until i was 12 and we were average. its not about all that shit. its about believing in the dark carnival, LOOK IT UP. its about having real love for your BLOOD FAMILY AND NON BLOOD FAMILY. they have songs they wrote to their moms man. you just dont get it at all.
OK FOR ONE, ICP AINT GUNNA GET SUED. THEY WILL PROLLY HAVE TO PAY THE HOSPITAL BILL BUT THATS IT. I AINT SWEATIN ANYTHING. FUCK THAT KID.
Re: allyally420 – i think getlostdancing understands our ways a little more after explaining the subliminal messages. unless more things are said i believe they have learned more about the juggalos and their "strange" ways of living.
Re: HatchetQueen859 – why would you be sweatin anything you aren't paying?
Re: ismejae – hahaha i know right.
Re: allyally420 – then dont read it. its really as simple as that.
anyways congratulations on the taco bell job and everything. thats a major accomplishment.
and if none of this is changing your life or whatever why are you getting all defensive about it.
i may not like juggalos. big deal. but its not like i want you all dead or im threatning you. its just a difference of opinions. and that wont kill you. you live your life i live mine. everyones happy that way.
have a nice day
@getlostdancing
ICP has been around for almost 2 decades now. What makes you think that in 5 years everyone will forget about them? Oh yeah that's right, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T HEAR THEM ON THE RADIO OR YOUR PRECIOUS MTV. HAHAHAHAHHAAAAA. PATHETIC! Juggalos 4 life mufacko!!!
Re: getlostdancing –
Ahhheemmm!!! ICP has been around for nearly 2 decades now with a fan base more loyal than any other music group in the history of the world. More loyal than fans of Elvis, The Beatles, Metallica etc…..
I've personally been a juggalo for 12 years now. What makes you think people will forget about them in 5 years. Because you can't hear them on the radio or your ever so precious MTV? Your a joke. Pull the dick out your mouth when your speakin and shit!
MCL to the juggalos, Fuck the fuck off to the haters! WHOOP WHOOP!!!
To all you hatin' on the juggalos.
This is my favorite part about you fucks. You sit there talking shit about juggalos. Name calling and whatnot, yet you say we are the ones who are the trouble makers. We are the ones that are fucked up. LOOK IN THE FUCKIN MIRROR, unless your ass is so ugly your reflection shatters that shit. If that's the case, park your ass in a dark corner or paint up your face and join the juggalos as we march towards shangri la.
Re: MutilatoRJuggalo – i dont watch mtv. except for the city and a double shot at love. its not even music television anymore.
Re: MutilatoRJuggalo –

-lilburnt–…
Re: kaotik$kJ0k3R – how are you gonna do anything when your dead.. when you die you are dead
I don't understand why everyone that is talking against ICP always say open up your minds. I think that if you like ICP then you already are open-minded. Yea, some of there music may sound crazy to all you mainstream people, but that is cuz you are listening to the words and the meaning behind them. ICP actually care about their fans, and they show that. For this guy to sue them, he definitely isn't a fan and he is just wanting his 15 minutes of fame. Anyone who has ever heard of ICP know that at their concerts they throw faygo and not just a couple bottles either. So get over it and stop talking sh*t, just because you don't like something, it doesn't mean that it is wrong or not good enough. One more thing. Not all juggalos and juggalettes get high and go to jail!!! So lose the stereotypes!!!!
Rocking the Hatchet for life!!! MMFCL!!!!!
Underdamoon
Re: ismejae – Eminem's discography is but a footnote compared to ICP. and ICP has better material
Re: Dafatmanjuggalo – i am sorry but you are wrong icp may have more albums but eminems are better and icp has to make full songs to diss him he drops like 4 bars dissing them and its better than their full songs
to all the haters of the insane clown posse… your makeing em famous just by talking about em thanks!!!! woop woop!! mmwcl mutha fuckas!!!!!
