Ozzy Osbourne revisits war memorial The Alamo 33 years after being arrested for peeing on it
The Black Sabbath frontman attempts to take a trip down memory lane with his son Jack
HE'S always been known as a bit of a hellraiser in his younger years, but now Ozzy Osbourne has been forced to revisit his past.
The Black Sabbath frontman was persuaded to take a trip back to The Alamo war memorial - 33 years after he was arrested for peeing on it.
The Birmingham-born rocker was arrested at the site back in 1982 when he turned up drunk and wearing one of his wife Sharon's dresses.
The 67-year-old Prince of Darkness was joined on the trip down memory lane by his son Jack.
But as the pair filmed scenes for new History Channel show Ozzy and Jack's World Detour, Ozzy admitted he wasn't sure if he actually peed on the memorial as he was "very inebriated".

And for obvious reasons, the singer is reluctant to head back to the venue.
Jack, 30, asked his dad: "What do you think is the worst that can happen?";
To which the long-haired star replied: "Getting beaten up, shot or killed.
"I'm Ozzy Osbourne and I urinated up the Alamo. It really was a bad scene.
"People have memories."
But Ozzy's fears are calmed once they're met by local councilman Robert Trevino who has found Ozzy's old police report.
He then reveals Ozzy was only charged with public intoxication that day - and never with public urination or public indecency.
Despite attempts to keep their visit to the site, where around 200 Texans led by folk hero Davy Crockett were killed by the Mexican army in 1836, the pair were met by a massive crowd.
Ozzy described the scene and said: "There was nearly a riot
"There were at least 100 people pushing and shoving and Jack had to appeal to everyone to stay calm."
Ozzy and Jack’s World Detour airs in the UK on HISTORY, Sunday September 18 at 9pm.
