Woman Sues Mets Owner Because Fat Guy Fell on Her
If the day comes that we're expected to sit as quietly at ballgames as if we were in church, and can't even drink beer, we'll have lawsuits to thank.
Last month one Ellen Massey attended a Mets game at Shea Stadium and had the misfortune to find herself beneath a fat guy who got drunk and fell down. The incident put her in the hospital for a couple of weeks. Naturally, she's suing the owner of the Mets, not because Fred Wilpon is the one who fell on her, but because he must have plenty of money if he can afford to pay the moonbat Carlos Delgado $14,500,000 a year to bat .209.
It counts for nothing that Wilpon's Mets overcame a 5-3 deficit that day to beat the Phillies 11-5 on behalf of their fans, Ms. Massey included.
For good measure, she's suing the beer vendor and the union representing Shea's security guards. Just to be fair, she's also suing the one guy who did her wrong — the fat guy who fell on her. But she won't get much from him, because he hasn't been identified.

Michael Moore's whereabouts at the time of the incident have not been ascertained. |
On a tip from Wiggins.

Why would Michael Moore attend a ballgame? Baseball is American.

DUH! to do an expose on how it keeps people of color poor and under the thumb of DA MAN who keeps getting richer and fatter. Wait a minute, richer and fatter? Uh....forget what I just said.

Van, you left out the best part.
Massey, a Manhattan lawyer, named Sterling Mets L.P., owner of the baseball team; Philadelphia-based Aramark Corp., the beer vendor; the Service Employees International Union Local 177, whose members are security guards at Shea Stadium, and "John Doe," the unidentified man who fell on her, as defendants.
It's a good thing this "John Doe" didn't report any suspicious activity, otherwise he'd be in a world of trouble.

And who is the Wiggins character, and why doesn't he have a website.

Better yet, take a service pig into a mosque!

I gave up Sitemeter as well when it totally screwed up for a period of several days. Not that my traffic comes anywhere near Moonbattery's or LGF's, but I like to know where I'm at.
As for this ridiculous lawsuit, expect it to be settled out of court for an "undisclosed sum."
