@forsythia...1: Ozzy Osbourne’s infamous bat-biting incident happened on January 20, 1982, during a concert in Des Moines, Iowa and while it may seem like something straight out of a horror movie, it was actually a bizarre accident. Here’s how it happened: During the show, a fan threw a real bat onto the stage. Ozzy, who was known for his wild antics and had previously bitten the heads off rubber animals as part of his act, thought the bat was a toy. He picked it up and bit into it, only to realize very quickly that it was real. Ozzy later said that as soon as he bit down, he knew something was wrong. The bat was reportedly still alive (though stunned), and he immediately had to be rushed to the hospital for rabies shots. Why did people think it was intentional? Because earlier in his career, Ozzy had bitten the head off a dove during a record label meeting to shock executives, that was on purpose. So when the bat incident happened, many thought it was just another over-the-top moment. But according to Ozzy himself, he was just as horrified as the crowd once he realized it wasn’t fake. #creatorsearchinsights #blacksabbath #ozzyosbourne #backtothebeginning #PrinceOfDarkness #RockLegend #GenX #OzzyForever #EndOfAnEra
