Ahhhhhh! Anything But Bach!
URBANA, OHIO — Andrew Vactor was facing a $150 fine for playing rap music too loudly on his car stereo in July. But a judge offered to reduce that to $35 if Vactor spent 20 hours listening to classical music by the likes of Bach and Chopin.It was reported that Vactor, 24, lasted only 15 minutes.
It wasn’t the music, Vactor said, he just needed to be at practice with the rest of the Urbana University basketball team. “I didn’t have the time to deal with that,” he said.
Champaign County Municipal Court Judge Susan Fornof-Lippencott says the idea was to force Vactor to listen to something he might not prefer, just as others had no choice but to listen to his music.
