If we truly wish to honor the history of the Alamo, we must honor ALL its history.

The story of the late, great Prince of Darkness and the Alamo are forever linked due to an incident in 1982.

In 1982, Osbourne made international headlines when he was arrested and booked into the Bexar County Jail after taking a piss on the Alamo Cenotaph. As a result of the drunken incident, the "Prince of Darkness" was banned from performing in San Antonio for 10 years.

Ozzy is San Antonio’s adopted son, and not just because of his infamous (yet hilarious and harmless) transgression and the Alamo. This has also long been considered the  “Metal Capitol of the World,” and Ozzy is the godfather of metal. 

This fountain deserves to exist in San Antonio, if this city has a sense of humor at all. Let’s make it happen.
