A North Kentucky University student get his auto wrecked by rabid fans

Matt O' Hara, 19, was in the infamous "Wrong place at the wrong time" when he was visiting a friend in Lexington Kentucky last Saturday. What happened to Matt was that after the Kentucky Wildcats defeated the Florida Gator in a football game played in Lexington for the first time since 1987. A reminder to Wildcat fans, a football game is for your entertainment, it does not give you a license to destroy autos that do not belong to you. Got that? Matt who owned a white 2004 Mazda auto had it beaten up by Wildcats fans who went too far in celebrating a college football game win. The insurance company refused to assist Matt to get a new car since his auto was destroyed by rioters. However the Big M Superstore auto dealer came to his rescue by inviting his mother Amy Rademaker Given to their auto lot in Nicholasville Kentucky to give him and his mom a Wildcat blue Mazda as a way of saying "Sorry for the drunk fans who wrecked his original auto". At least one auto dealer did the right thing by giving Matt and his mom a new auto that has the colors of the Wildcat nation in Lexington. The incident was captured on social media which propelled the auto dealer to step up and assist someone who needed an auto to replace one that was damaged by a few drunk football fans.
