12. Ozzy Osbourne
A lot of people may think of the reality show The Osbournes when they hear the name Ozzy Osbourne, but most people know him for being an icon within heavy metal. His time and success as the lead singer ofBlack Sabbath and then as a solo artist has even garnered him the title “Godfather of Heavy Metal.” While he was on tour in Texas in 1982, Ozzy was arrested for public urination and intoxication. During his drunken venture around San Antonio, Ozzy ended up urinating on a statue at the Alamo, which is a source of immense pride among native Texans. He was released on 40$ bail, and suffered a ten year ban from the city of San Antonio until he made amends by making a sizable donation to the Daughters of the Republic of Texas who maintain the Alamo site.
