Idiot sues Carnival for burning feet during Hairy Man contest

It's all fun and games at the "Hairy Man" contest until someone burns his feet on the dance floor. That's according to Kurt Gies, a Carnival cruise passenger who claims he suffered "mental anguish," in addition to pain and injuries, when he scorched his feet trying to win the famed body hair competition. For the uninitiated, the contest is a raucous dance-off between, as you may have guessed, a bunch of typically drunk, middle-aged guys who are vying to be dubbed "Hairiest Man on the Ship." If you've never witnessed it before, allow us to offer you a random YouTube video. Gies is suing, but Carnival says he showed no distress. [Source]
