(probably justified when the facts come out) If he wins this case, every bar, club, etc would be responsible in civil court for fights that break out among any drinking criminals? (think there any any around?) What a joke. The plaintiff's attorney who took this case must not be in KC, huh?

I wouldn't be to quick to dismiss this. I was selling beer at the Qwest center in Omaha and we had to take these classes on alcohol training. They showed a Dateline NBC a story on the Giants and how they were sued because one of the fans at a game had drank like 25 beers and was so drunk he couldn't stand, but was able to drive his car and killed a little girl after leaving the stadium. The girls dad got millions from the Giants and the NFL. They were shown to have been negligent. I'm telling you, it's going to get harder and harder to have a couple beers at the game because there are too many dickheads who can't control themselves.

All this guy needs is a sympathetic jury, and the Chiefs will pay up. Probably will be settled out of court.
