The reports of utter mayhem in the streets of Keene this weekend, gave me a tension headache thinking of families endangering their small children by bringing them to this traditional NH festival as drunken protesters ran amok terrorizing anyone that dared to step foot inside the town line.

It's only after I viewed this raw footage that I felt a slight bit of relief that this particular bottle throwing incident seemed to happen between two teams of willing (and swilling) participants.

The following is not an endorsement of such activities but I feel a few "lowlights" need to be commented upon.

In an apparent war on sobriety, street signs, vehicles and each other, these young adults in Keene threw (and threw and threw up) bottles and cans in a game of Red Rover that seemed anything but intelligent.

Skip to 3:55 you see a kid get hit in the chest with a half full kinger. He seems rather amused by this and "felt no pain".

At 4:17 you see the emergence of a dude who I feel is the star of this spectacle, The Brown Hoodie. His first throw really caught both my eye and the pavement approximately 12 feet in front of him.

At 5:21, TBH proves that the first throw was not a fluke and for that we are all thankful.

At 5:48, another dude's follow through smacks our "hero"(?) right in the side of the face (once again no pain appears to be felt) and sadly that footage is the last we see of him.

At 6:17, a throw from the kid in the blue shirt only serves to remind us of the bearded jovial party-goer that so entertained us through this shameful dangerous comedy.
