It's not just me, the courts have decided...
LOS ANGELES (AP) — An attorney says a disabled man was awarded $8,000
by Disneyland after the "It's A Small World" ride broke, stranding him
for a half hour while the theme song played continuously.
Lawyer David Geffen says Jose Martinez didn't medically stabilize for three hours after the ride broke down in 2009.
Disneyland spokeswoman Suzi Brown said the Anaheim theme park
believes it provided appropriate assistance during the incident, and is
disappointed that the court did not fully agree.
Geffen says Martinez uses a wheelchair, suffers from panic attacks
and high blood pressure, which was aggravated by a need to urinate.
Geffen says half the award ordered Friday is for pain and suffering,
and the rest is for disability law violations. Brown says the violations
have been addressed.
Notice the article specifically states; "while the theme song played continuously". The above press release proves the evil side of music and it's not Heavy Metal as some people like to believe. This also makes what I confessed to in the blog: The Meanest Thing I've Ever Done that much more heinous. I'm lucky I didn't get sued.
