Winnipeg Man Jailed For Stabbing Guy Who Didn't Like AC/DC

A 37-year-old Winnipeg man has been sentenced to four years in jail and three years of probation after he stabbed a man who insulted AC/DC.
According to the Winnipeg Sun, James Ivison invited a 22-year-old man to his room at a Furby Street rooming house in October 2008. After they had a few beers, the man started insulting AC/DC, which Ivison was playing at the time. He then started questioning Ivison's sexual orientation.
Ivison responded by stabbing the victim, who had grabbed a frying pan, three times in the chest and two times in the stomach with a kitchen knife.
The 22-year-old victim was hospitalized in critical condition, but was discharged the next day because none of his major organs were damaged, according to the newspaper.
Both men reportedly have criminal records.
You can bet the 22-year-old won't be at these AC/DC shows:
Nov. 6 Austin, TX @ Frank Erwin Center
Nov. 8 Houston, TX @ Toyota Center
Nov. 12 Mexico City, Mexico @ Foro Sol
Nov. 15 El Paso, TX @ Don Haskins Center
Nov. 19 Orlando, FL @ Amway Arena
Nov. 21 San Juan, Puerto Rico @ Coliseo De Puerto Rico
