    where was the security?

    i am in a local band here in st louis and we have bouncers in front and on either side of the stage. nobody can even get near us unless we allow it.

    this woman should sue the venue as well.

    she had no place on that stage, but he also had no business knocking her out.

    Security should have been there, but I disagree with the suggestion she should sue the venue- even though there is significant legal precedence rewarding such stupidity.

    Courts need to stop rewarding people for their poor choices
    If this guy did this in the Santa Clara 49ers stadium, he would have probably filed a lawsuit and won ...

    is it bad that i laughed at that guy when i first saw that video?
    It is pretty funny except the dumbass landed on someone and injured them.

    The good people of buffalo .... he was banned for life from Bills games ... his boss immediately fired him ... and he is going to do 1 - 2 years in the clink.
    The man did time? What was the charge?

    The guy was clearly a knob end, hope the person he landed on wasn't too badly injured.

    third-degree assault and second-degree reckless endangerment

    Dr. Loubert Steven Suddaby, Bratcher's neurosurgeon, testified that Bratcher, 29, had bulging discs in two places in his cervical spine and a herniated disc in his middle spine. He said if the impact had been only two inches forward, Bratcher could have been killed or left a quadriplegic.

    I spoke too soon ... he could have gotten 1 - 2 years in the clink but instead got 100 hours of community service. Fuck you, citizens of Buffalo. For shame! For shame!

    He's a Bills fan, hasn't he been punished enough? (Fellow Bills fan here)
  • you can sue anybody for anything in this country. it might get laughed out of court, but you can sue anyone and seek damages for the slightest perceived wrong. depends on the judge and jury.

    of course you can. but it seems you are advocating for her to do this? is that what you are saying?

    if she suffered injury in a place hosting a concert where alcohol is sold, there is liability there. so yeah, she should sue to get her medical bills paid. i am sure they have insurance to cover things like this.

    If the people down below that he landed on saw the whole thing, they'd be with in their right- if I was the policymaker on what is right- to kick his ass on the spot.

    the venue didn't knock her out. the contracted performer did. she went on stage where the general public are generally not allowed. what you are saying is the venue is at fault for not protecting this drunk from herself. I don't personally agree with that line of thinking.

    No, but her idiocy spawned further dumbassedness. Again - why not have the artiste foot the bill for his actions?

    i don't make the laws.

    but still, as a venue owner, safety and security should be number 1 priority over everything else. did the security keep the artist safe? no. did security keep the fan safe? clearly not. could the venue have done more for security? yes.

    all i am saying is that is how the law works in this country.

    disagree all you want. all i am saying is that she will find an attorney to sue the venue, and she will get a settlement out of it. who knows, maybe the settlement will just be that they are required to provide more security.

    And all I'm saying is there is something fundamentally wrong with that.

    I realize you are only speaking the reality to the situation. This doesn't make it right though: blaming others for your actions.

    I fall down a set of stairs that is not unlike the countless other stairs I have successfully navigated throughout my lifetime... and you are to blame. Not me- the careless klutz- you... the homeowner who happened to be the homeowner when I carelessly lost my footing on a set of stairs.

    It's ridiculous.

    I can't speak for anyone else, but I KNOW that is how it works there. I'm not arguing what CAN be done. I'm just kind of surprised that you seem to be a cheerleader for this type of thing.

    Just because the venue has insurance doesn't mean it's ok to exploit it. This is the type of mentality that makes insurance so expensive for everyone, including future insurance of the venue.

    Falling down steps at your house is one thing. You are responsible for that. that's not really comparable to a third party causing injury. Maybe if your plumber pushed her down the stairs? I don't know. I still think that wouldn't be your fault, it would be between her and your plumber.

    I still think if there is any lawsuit against anyone, it should be against the perpertator of the act. not the ones holding the event.

  • So, obviously, Orchard Park will face a law suit because their railings weren't high enough to deter people from sliding down them?

    The facility had an inherent responsibility to account for the stupidity in people and safeguard the fools from being tempted to do something completely moronic.

    ok, but seems a bit of backtracking, when just earlier you said this:

    "this woman should sue the venue as well."

    you didn't say she "will" or "could". you said she "should". you also asked "where was security?". it seemed like you were blaming the venue and the woman first and second and the man that threw the punch a distant third.

    that was my understanding of your posts, anyway.

    That Knockout Is Gonna Cost Him ... The woman Afroman sucker punched during a concert this week is getting ready to strike back ... in court. TMZ has learned the woman -- a 21-year-old named Haley -- hired an attorney ... who tells us Haley suffered multiple injuries to her neck, jaw and back after the attack. Her lawyer Tim Holleman also thinks she may have suffered a mild concussion ... since she doesn't remember the punch. Even though our video shows Haley wandering on stage -- Holleman says the venue should bare some responsibility since security did nothing to remove her.

    Attorneys go where the money is ... and I don't think that path leads to Afroman whose net assets are most likely the trade-in value of a 1993 Ford E-Series van.
