Ozzy used as pawn in Fargo string operation
A local a sheriff in Forgo N. D., wants a heavy medal for his sting operation last week, but the ordeal has left Ozzy Osborne livid.
The former Black Sabbath front man is furious after county sheriff Paul D. Laney lured wanted men by offering VIP perks at a pre-concert party before Ozzy’s show at the Fargodome on Oct. 29.
Laney sent the invites, with included perks normally offered by Osborne’s VIP packages as well as two concert tickets, to 40 unsuspecting recipients. When the "winners" appeared at the scene, they were promptly arrested on outstanding warrants. Laney immediately took to the media and smiled on camera, bragging about his operation.
Ozzy, however, wasn’t feeling it.
"Instead of holding a press conference to pat himself on the back," Osborne said in a statement released by MSO PR, "Sheriff Laney should be apologizing to me for using my name in connection with these arrests. It’s insulting to me and to my audience."
The Dark Prince was offended that the sting suggested his concerts "attract a criminal element," and said his VIP ticket sales have in part contributed to raising more than $1 million for his wife’s colon cancer charity.
"My audiences are good hard-working people who have been hugely supportive of my music for nearly four decades,” Osborne stated. "It’s obvious to me that this sheriff has an agenda and is just trying to make a name for himself on my back."
Osboune said he holds no ill will toward Forgo’s metal-loving citizens, and will return to the city to perform.
