Yucky Incident at Blue Man Group = Lawsuit!

A guy who was grossed out by having the "esophagus-cam" forced down his throat is suing Blue Man Group because the camera was covered in blue paint and other sticky, gooey stuff from the floor before it went down his throat.
When I saw the show, I assumed that it was just a pre-recorded video to make it appear that the camera went down the guy's throat. But this audience member claims it really did go in his mouth. That would gross me out too.

Do you really think that they shove a dirty, paint spattered camera down a random audience member's throat at each show?

This is ridiculous.

hahahaha

I hate to break it to you, but some people will do anything if you give them enough money.

I'm no BM fan- I've seen only enough of the show to know I could never sit through the whole thing. But the Chandelier thing is the perfect analogy. It's a show, the camera is OBVIOUSLY a stage effect just like the helicopter in Miss Saigon. This guy is either nuts or broke.

And incidentally- I hate crap like this- I go to a show to watch THEM perform and hate it when they do Audience Particpation. This guy sounds like he never should have been there in the first place.

lakezurich, your picture makes me happy

"This is ridiculous."

So is your avatar, lakezurich. In an amazing, hysterical, my face is red kind of way. :)
