This is our State?*** (I kid, only because he appears OK)
Are you saying he's ok because of info from somewhere besides the linked article ? Just says "stable", which seems to be used for such a wide range of conditions to be unhelpful. Certainly could be "stable" but also in a condition where he can't play football again.

Not sure what that is or if this is a joke because of the lack of *.

Every media outlet in the country is just reporting he was shot "at a concert in Mississippi". This is just polite language for what actually happened i would assume.
Fact:

The Jimmie Rodgers Music Festival began in 1953 with the Jimmie Rodgers' Day, which attracted more than 50,000 attendees, and has provided live music entertainment by premier musicians throughout the years. Due to the Father of Country Music's influence on all genres of American music and the rich legacy he left behind, the Jimmie Rodgers Music Festival has a unique opportunity to draw a wide regional – and even international – audience.

You were the one who mentioned Meridian, and that was the big concert there this weekend
Yeah my information doesn't seem to be accurate. And I wasn't making fun of you. I honestly don't know who or what that festival is. I thought you were possibly being sarcastic.

There was another shooting in Meridian over the weekend outside of Legends downtown. 1 dead 3 injured. I figured Hardy was one of the 3 injuries.

Meridian has really degenerated over the years. I grew up there and best I can tell, it was perfectly safe and there was no problem going downtown. It sounds like a crime pit now.

A shooting at a concert at the Kamakazie Biker Club on Masonite Drive in Laurel left Mississippi native and All-SEC Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy wounded.
The shooting took place around 2 a.m. Sunday as the establishment was closing after an outdoor rap concert had ended. Laurel Police Department Sgt. Macon Davis described the scene as “a melee.”
“There had been a scheduled concert there of some rappers, or maybe a couple of different rappers,” Davis said. "It drew a large crowd, and then gunshots rang out at the end.”

Davis said they had two confirmed victims, Hardy being one of them, and a third confirmed victim. Hardy is reportedly in stable condition.
Three 19-year-old suspects from Laurel have been brought in for questioning by the LPD and are listed as on hold for another agency. Landice Magee, Jyon Sibley and Alvin Peyton were confirmed as the suspects in the shooting.

The LPD found multiple gun casings, and Davis said it was a miracle more people weren’t hit.

Davis added they have not established a motive for the shooting and are still in the early stages of the investigation. He also said anyone with any video or additional information about the shooting should call the LPD at (601) 425-4711.

“Ahmad is deeply loved by his teammates, coaches, friends, family and fans,” the University of Missouri said in a statement. “We will continue to stand beside him and his family through this difficult time, offering our love, prayers, strength and support.”
The statement continued, “A timeline for his return to football activities is unknown at this time.”
Hardy, 20, is a first-team All-SEC selection from last season. He ran for 1,649 yards, second most in FBS. He also ran for 16 touchdowns in his first season with the Tigers.
According to the team, Hardy suffered a gunshot wound on Sunday morning and underwent surgery the same day. He is in stable condition.

Looks like a nice place. In 20 years living in Laurel & 40 of going back to visit I’ve never even seen it or knew it was there.
