why should carnage have to pay?
they didnt make him drink the amount of alcohol he did - he chose to
I am a student myself and regularly attend carnage nights out. it is a laugh for the students and most of us do not cause any trouble or abuse. This guy took things too far and im sure regrets his actions. it was a mistake and one im sure he wont be repeating. Carnage did not promote heavy drinking. Infact this is the email below sent out by carnage warning students there is a zero tolerance policy!
The Police in Sheffield for this Sunday's event will have a 100% ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY - if you commit even a small crime, you will be made an example of. DO NOT LET THIS BE YOU OR ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS!!

Helpful tips to STAY OUT OF TROUBLE
*******************************
1) Do NOT bring drinks into Sheffield City Centre.
2) NO horseplay - piggy backing in the streets etc
3) Respect the community - do not be loud and boisterous - Let's all show everyone that Sheffield Students are not all the same, and that they are mindful and respectful of local feelings in the current climate.
4) Please do NOT sit on pavements etc - you do NOT want to be pictured in the NATIONAL NEWSPAPERS and 'labelled' as a problem student.
5) Walk on the pavements and do NOT wander into the roads or tram tracks - your SAFETY is important.
Carnage UK is here to give you nights to remember. You do NOT want it to turn in to a night that you would rather forget!
