Chicken John Survives a Bottle Rocket Attack

At Saturday night’s How to Destroy the Universe Part 6 event at NIMBY, Chicken John offered people the chance to shoot bottle rockets as him while he sang “Come Sail Away” by Styx. The stunt was used to raise money for Swimming Cities of Serenissima (Chicken charged $10 per bottle rocket).
