Throwing articles of worn clothing on stage at an artist is generally kinda gross. There are the age-old stories of bras being thrown on stage at rockstars that we've all seen countless times over the years, but still – ain't nobody wants your sweaty clothes thrown at them while they're doing their job. Unfortunately Alice Cooper guitarist Nita Strauss was the victim of one clothes-throwing incident at a show in 2021 that was a little more vile than usual.
Strauss recounts the time some dude in an unnamed-in-the-story city decided to take his boxers off between "Teenage Frankenstein" and "School's Out," and chuck 'em at her mid-song. The throw missed, everyone in the band laughed their asses off, and the boxers were thrown back… hitting someone in the head who they didn't belong to. Gross.
