A fan from North Carolina is taking legal action against the Los Angeles Dodgers after a bizarre incident during a baseball game. Jennifer Wagner claims she was struck by an alcoholic drink, a BuzzBallz, while attending a Dodgers game on August 6th. The lawsuit alleges that the drink was thrown or dropped from an elevated area, causing immediate pain and subsequent medical issues for Wagner. This incident not only affected her physically but also disrupted her family's plans, including a visit to Disneyland.
Wagner is suing the Dodgers for negligence and premises liability, arguing that the organization should have anticipated the potential risks associated with serving alcohol in small, round containers. She believes the Dodgers failed to warn attendees of the potential dangers, and as a result, she suffered physical and emotional distress, along with medical expenses. The lawsuit also mentions that her two young children, who were present at the game, experienced fear and shock witnessing the incident.
This case is particularly intriguing as it isn't the first time BuzzBallz has made headlines in Los Angeles. Recently, a 25-year-old man was sentenced to jail for feeding a young hawk alcohol from a BuzzBallz container, highlighting the controversial nature of these drinks in the city. The Dodgers have yet to comment on the lawsuit, but this incident certainly raises questions about venue safety and the potential risks associated with serving alcohol in unconventional containers.
What do you think? Is the Dodgers organization at fault for not predicting such incidents, or is this a rare and isolated case? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
