Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
Those costumes are hot and uncomfortable. You can only see through small eye holes, so if you want to see anything but straight ahead you have to keep turning your head side to side and up and down. People can tap you or hit you and you can't see where it came from.

Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
"Now, Disney has gotten 24 more complaints from visitors who said Tigger also pawed them.
The Orange County sheriff's office is investigating, and said it believes at least 13 of the claims are credible."
Anyone wonder what the Orange County sheriff's office is doing about the 11 non-credible claims? Gee possible nothing?? Assuming for a second that the guy is innocent and not some perv who likes fondling girls in a tiger costume (either could be true in this case IMO) they will never stop these kind of claims until you start nailing those making these bogus claims. But that will never happen.

Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
Personally i believe one of those parties should go to jail or have some sort of suitable punishment, this sort of thing is just wrong on either outcome.
If the guy is guilty - well there isn't much of an argument there.
If he is an Innocent man then I don't know what's more sick. This kind of thing is horrible and the women trying to claim money over it are just...
*sigh* My faith in this race is really beginning to fade...

Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
We now live in modern day Rome. Rome just prior to its collapse.
To be honest, aside from the death and brutalization of inocent people, I would welcome a major change on the scope that Rome endured in the end.

Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
Now if Tigger had grooped a boy or a man, well then, that would be a wee bit harder to explain......

Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
We had an incident locally that was similiar in reverse. The mascot of a local restaurant accused two local politicians of "inappropriate" touching during a photo op during the eatery's Grand Opening. In front of the men's wives and the entire restaurant, no less. Worse, the State Patrol investigated and said there was enough evidence to go to trial. The judge wound up dismissing the suit against one man and the jury deliberated less than two hours before acquitting the other man. Evidently the classmate who testified the girl bragged she would get a new car out of the settlement was pretty convincing. Unfortunately, the second man lost his job as County Election Commissioner before the trial.

Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
The case you posted would surprise me somewhat less, kalthalior. It's amazing the crap the people that do the mascot stuff have to put up with.
Pushing, shoving, hitting, knocking you over..all the way up to lighting the costume on fire and stabbing you- fortunatelly they guy in question turned just right and the suit was thick enough to stop the blade.

Re: OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!
Hmmm, I come back to the forum for a microsecond, before real life whisks me off again, and look what the lot of you are saying....
reaches for red hot poker hand cannon and makes sure it is fully loaded with blistering iron spikes ready for appointments with the rectal regions of half the forum's denizens, especially General Woundwort as I just have this thing about Phoenix and Arizonans in general! (cos of an undercooked chicken breast at Monty's Casa Vieja which meant my drive up to Flagstaff was dictated by the number of rest stops with sanitory loo facilities on the way!!!)...
On a vaguely serious note, isn't it sad how things are going. I blame the American "high compensation awards" legal system.
When I were a young lad, if I touched a woman inappropriately in the chest department, one of three things happended, either (i) she slapped me or kicked me in the knackers, (ii) she got her boyfriend to slap me or kick me in the knackers or (iii) she didn't mind and I was on for a promise.
These days, nothing happens other than her lawyer sends you a demand for £10,000,000 in damages for hurt feeling, inappropriate behaviour and wear and tear on bra!!
Mad, the world is as mad as a bunch of badgers!
