Kaiser, Missouri, to Insane Clown Posse: “Don’t Even THINK of Coming Here!”
The Annual Gathering of the Juggalos is homeless again.
After being turfed out of their usual haunt in Cave-In-Rock, Illinois, the ICP organization thought they had found a new home at CryBaby Campground in Kaiser, Missouri. But when the citizens of the town heard about this, they grabbed their pitchforks and torches in protest.
The heat became so intense that ICP had to pull the plug. From their website:
We also want to add that the owners of the campground did not have a problem with the Gathering being held on their property and have mad love for all people, including Juggalos. We have been working with them to make sure this was going to be one of the greatest Gatherings ever and they have been nothing but supportive, kind hearted and open minded. They also fully understood what the Gathering was and were fully willing to welcome us with open arms (after all, this is the same spot that hosts a biker rally every year).
However, after we signed the contract and announced the location of the Gathering, some of the people that lived in the surrounding community began to raise hell. Not all of them, mind you, but enough to bring a lot of heat to the owners of the campground. Not only that, they also experienced a media blitz and their phones would not stop ringing. This was no doubt amplified because of the recent lawsuit filed against the FBI by Psychopathic Records and the ACLU for wrongly accusing the Juggalos of being a gang, as well as the reports of last year’s Gathering losing money. Some people in the community where the Gathering was to be held must have believed the nonsense because they kept saying a “gang” was coming to their town and we heard reports that some people were starting to arm themselves. Unbelievable!
