Can’t Stop The Music

Rule number one of transporting cocaine: Don’t do anything stupid that would let the cops into your card. I don’t really know if that’s rule number one, but, hey, it seems like it’d make a good first rule.

Regardless, the Glassboro’s Wilbert Lopez was allegedly carrying 19 bags of cocaine in his SUV when he crashed into a crowd of people at the XPoNential Music Festival just over the river in Camden on Saturday. He allegedly rear-ended a car before continuing down the street and crashing right into the center of the festival, smashing into a Ben & Jerry’s stand (funny) and a little girl (not as funny).

The show, however, must go on.

On Sunday, Roger LaMay, general manager of Philadelphia’s WXPN-FM, said most festival visitors he spoke with didn’t even know about the incident. “Fortunately there were no serious injuries… and the show continued and there were no disruptions,” LaMay said.

That’s right, folks: No car crash could stop Robert Hazard’s 8:20 p.m. set. Phew!
