Banjo player advised to call it a night

This picture has nothing to do with this story. I just thought it was a cool photo.Here’s an interesting little episode for you. This comes from The Bowling Green News police blotter.

These events took place last night at 3:53 AM on the campus of Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, OH.

Campus police respond to a complaint of someone playing a banjo too loudly outside East Offenhauer. Subjects were advised to “call it a night.”

Now that’s just harsh! Who would complain about a banjo in the dorm at 4 AM?! I guess the soothing sound of a forward roll wasn’t helping him sleep.
