TJones Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 It's weird for me to see that he had a bad crash like that. What the hell was HE doing driving his own tour bus. I actually saw him(his bus anyways) coming into town on I-10 eastbound in Katy, Saturday evening on his way to his gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevfiv Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I was driving down 610 west southbound later that morning as they were getting ready to tow away the bus. I had no idea until later that day who/why/what happened. Very sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cottonmather0 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 This is the first I had heard that HE was driving... and now it makes sense. I was wondering how someone riding in the back of the bus could suffer critical injuries in a head-on collision. Not so for the driver of the bus.

houstonmacbro Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I have good sources that says he is also a heavy drinker. Could have been alcohol related.And why was he driving the bus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F. Barnes Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 One thing he has in his favor, if this were to have happen anywhere else they most likely would be making funeral arrangements already. He happen to have this tragedy happen in the city with the best Medical Facilty in the world, and Hermann Hospital is state of the art. He is getting the absolute best treatment that he can get, and in some cases couldn't get anywhere else. For instance this experimental hypothermia neurotrauma treatment he's getting, you just can't get everywhere. He is being treated by the best neurosurgeons on the planet, his best chance to recover is right here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimberlySayWhat Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 For the longest time I thought he was married to Gloria Estefan. I hope he pulls out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houstonmacbro Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Any results form the blood alcohol tests? Seems that info has been kept really quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vertigo58 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Any results form the blood alcohol tests? Seems that info has been kept really quiet.I hardly heard of this guy before all of this just like when that Selena woman died. It wasn't until she was killed I personally learned who and what she was. Oh well.Same with him. I too am dumfounded why he would play at such a dump if he wa such a super star? If you saw the place they were playing at you would be just as miffed. Guess its all besides the point now, I reckon y'all.Hope he gets back to normal.

houstonmacbro Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 He was drunk while driving - http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5748031.htmlI'd heard that early on (I think I mentioned it somewhere up this thread), but had no 'evidence'. But man ...So how does that change how we feel about this matter. For me, it makes me sympathetic to his condition, but not to the condition that led to him being in this condition. I mean, he coulda killed someone, and weren't there other people on the bus seriously injured?Man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cottonmather0 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 DRUNK? REALLY? YOU THINK? OMG!Talk about non-news. I think it would have been more newsworthy if it turned out he was sober. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vertigo58 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I cracked up when the reporter said he must have 9 lives like Morris The Cat.
