We just got word that local mover/shaker Sonny Mayugba is recovering after a severe accident at Squaw Valley earlier today. David Watts Barton, Sonny’s compatriot over at the SacramentoPress reported via Facebook:
“No details on the accident, but he broke four ribs and his pelvis. He also had a collapsed lung, which was the big worry, but they reinflated it and it appears to be holding. He’s in good spirits and has started rehab on the pelvis. No word yet on a release date.”
Mayugba has been a very familiar face in Midtown at least since he first popped up in Phallucy and Daycare, mainstays of Sac’s early nineties rock scene. He became even better known for his involvement in Heckler– a local skating/snowboarding mag that ‘went global’ with a devoted worldwide paying (!) readership. These days he’s involved with a non-print publication, SacramentoPress, where he seems to wear many many hats. I last saw Sonny at DeVere’s St Patty’s day party where he was sporting the beer-friendly hard hat above.
Best thoughts to Sonny and family for a speedy recovery!
