Y'all can cancel the Amber Alert. Kevin Kain is alive and well. Very much so. Last night, the local Twitterverse was buzzing with word that promoter Kevin Kain had allegedly been killed in a car accident at the Southlands Mall. Turns out the erroneous rumor was just that. Talk about raising Kain!

Once Kevin confirmed that he was indeed still among the living, everyone laughed and breathed a sigh of relief that he isn't taking a dirt nap currently, and that Lord willin' he'll live many more hilarious days to come. Now please stop calling his mama!
