A C150 PLT; LNDG AT LVJ; BECAME DISTR BY SPECTATORS; AND LANDED NEXT TO THE GRASS RWY; DAMAGING THE ACFT.

Narrative

I ENTERED THE TFC PATTERN FOR RWY 14L AT LVJ. AFTER ANNOUNCING MY INTENTIONS; 3 BANNER TOW ACFT ENTERED THE PATTERN BEHIND ME. RWY 14 IS A GRASS STRIP; WHICH HAD BEEN RECENTLY MOWED; ALONG WITH THE ADJACENT TXWY AND SURROUNDING LAND; WHICH MADE IT HARD TO IDENT THE RWY BOUNDARIES. IN ADDITION; THE BANNER TOW RECOVERY TEAM WAS ON THE APCH END OF THE RWY AND NEXT TO THE APCH END WITH THEIR RECOVERY EQUIP; PICK-UP TRUCKS; TRAILERS; POLES; ETC. THERE WAS QUITE A BIT OF RADIO CHATTER BTWN THE 3 BANNER ACFT AND THE RECOVERY TEAM. BEING DISTR BY THE RADIO CHATTER; THE EQUIP ON THE SIDE OF THE RWY; AND THE RECENTLY MOWED GRASS; I LANDED ON THE L SIDE OF WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE RWY. I SAW IMMEDIATELY I WAS GOING TO HIT THE DITCH OF THE XWIND RWY 4/22. I PULLED BACK ABRUPTLY ON THE ELEVATOR AND APPLIED FULL PWR TO INITIATE A GAR; BUT WAS UNABLE TO AVOID THE DITCH. UPON LNDG; THE NOSEWHEEL AND MOUNT ASSEMBLY FOLDED BACK; AND THE AIRPLANE SKIDDED FORWARD ON THE COWLING. NO ONE WAS HURT; AND MINIMAL DAMAGE OCCURRED TO THE AIRPLANE.
