Considering how badly Stadium Taxes are screwing Jackson County . . . A wiener mishap at The K really doesn't surprise me.
TMZ has the breaking news:
MLB Mascot Accused of Gruesome Wiener AttackI'm not sure that the cash would be worth it to forever earn the title as the guy who took a Sluggerrr facial . . . Then again, considering nearly a generation of humiliation for Royals fans, this wiener slap to the eye isn't that big of a deal and it's probably the only way watching baseball in KC would pay off.
In a lawsuit filed in Jackson County, Missouri in which John Coomer claims he was just chillin' at a game on September 8, 2009 -- when Slugger "climbed atop the third base dugout and started shooting hotdogs into the stands from an air gun."
Coomer claims Slugger eventually put the air gun down -- and started firing off the wieners by hand ... when, according to the suit, things went horribly wrong.
In the docs, Coomer claims "Slugger lost control of his throw or was reckless with his throw, and threw the hotdog directly into the Plaintiff."
Coomer claims the dog hit him right in his left eye -- leaving him with a detached retina and the development of cataracts.
Wiener crimes. That is all this blog seems to discuss anymore.
ReplyDeletetrue dat.
ReplyDeleteI think if I couldn't catch a wiener at a ball game I wouldn't go public with it.
ReplyDeletesomebody sued over a hot dog. This town is going to hell.
ReplyDeleteThe irony of this seemingly frivolous lawsuit is that it was NOT filed by a "plaintiff's attorney"(or a "trial attorney" as they are derisively called), but a lawyer from one of the most conservative corporate lawfirms in town.
ReplyDeleteIt's understandable how this accident could have occurred. How many of us have lost control while tossing our wieners?
ReplyDeletei'm no retina expert, but i know enough to know that you cannot get cataracts from a goddamn hotdog poking you in the eye. you MIGHT get a detached retina, in which case, a cataract is the least of your concerns.
ReplyDeletetalk about frivolous.
2:59... lolz!!
2:59 lol...
ReplyDeleteThis guy is so full of it.
ReplyDeleteHe actually got the injury when Sluggerrr unzipped his pants at the K and his hotdog popped out and hit him in the eye.
He wasn't throwing hotdogs, he was showing hotdogs.
I always toss my hot dog when I see pics of Holly Starr!!!
ReplyDeleteOK... what firm is reppin this dog damaged ding dong?
ReplyDeleteThese attorneys are so bad that not only do we have ambulance chasing attorneys, but we now have hot dog chasing attorneys. OMG.
Speaking of cold... it was so cold outside today I saw an attorney with his hands in his own pockets....

Well at least the Royals are getting some ink.
ReplyDeleteA tip for Slugger. If you want to maintain control while you are tossing the wiener, try thinking of baseball. Works for me.
ReplyDeleteBS. I was standing right behind this guy Coomer. Slugger was done shooting the dogs out of his gun and everyone was looking out at the new K super jumbotron for a replay when he tossed a dog our way. It hit him in the face and the foil rapper grazed his eye.He immediately grabbed his eye and it was obviously watered and red. The fan assistance came down and walked him to med-assistance.You think this cant happen youre nuts.
ReplyDeleteOk Toby Cook, let's see you make a positive spin out of this story.
ReplyDeletethe law firm representing this dipshit is Lewis Rice.
ReplyDeletepathetic, him and them.
whoevers sueing him should get a thousand bucks just for having the guts to go in front of a judge and say he got hit in the face with Slugger's weiner.
