Andy Hopkins ended up in hospital just a few days before The Enemy take to the stage at the V Festival, reports The Sun newspaper. Here is the story from Gordon Smart's Bizarre column explaining what happened: I HAVE a confession to make.
When ANDY HOPKINS from The Enemy hops on to play the V Festival on crutches this weekend, it's partly my fault.
The poor lad smashed his heel in a drinking game which got out of hand at the inaugural Bizarre golf tournament.
He was down at A&E yesterday morning, being fitted out with a pot. I just hope he's well enough to perform.
The 19th hole festivities for the EA Sports Bizarre Masters kicked in after the presentations - and things spiralled out of control.
Andy had kindly travelled down from Coventry for the tourney at The Grove in Hertfordshire when the accident happened - apologies to frontman TOM CLARKE and the loyal Enemy faithful.
It all started with a putting competition in the dark with the sprinklers soaking everyone on the green.
If you took more than two shots to get the ball in the hole, you had to down half your drink. More than four and the whole drink had to go.
Some terrible putting and a few rounds of rum and ginger and Andy found himself doing his best JURGEN KLINSMANN impression along a slippery outdoor bar.
It seemed a good idea at the time.
But seeing Andy limping off in the wee small hours, only a few days before the band play Chelmsford and Staffordshire, made me think it would have been better if I had suggested dominoes instead.
