You piqued my curiosity with the mention of the guy who sued Stan's. Here is all I could find via google, but it doesn't mention the outcome:<BR/><BR/>A 30-year-old Queens man has filed a $600 million lawsuit against a popular Yankees-fan hangout and the city, claiming they're responsible for him getting drunk and stumbling into the path of a train, which severed his legs.<BR/><BR/>In his suit filed this week in Bronx Supreme Court, Michael Butler claims the New York City Transit Authority is partly responsible for his injuries because one of its conductors, who spotted him sleeping on a D train, "abandoned" him on a platform of the subway station at 205th Street and Bainbridge Avenue in The Bronx at about 3:30 a.m. on Nov. 1, 2001. <BR/><BR/>As a result, Butler stumbled onto the tracks and was hit by a train, which severed both his legs below the knee, according to his Brooklyn lawyer, Bruce Baron. He said the conductor should have called an ambulance.<BR/><BR/>The victim is somewhat liable for his own injuries, Baron conceded. But the lawyer maintained the conductor became liable once he moved Butler.<BR/><BR/>"Had he left him on the train to sleep, [Butler] would've woken up 10 hours later with a headache. Instead, because of the way this was handled, he woke up without two legs," Baron said.<BR/><BR/>Also named as defendants are Stan's Sports Bar, a popular haunt for Yankees fans where Butler says he had been drinking before the accident, and its owners and operators, identified as Louis Dene and Louis Martucci.<BR/><BR/>Butler claims the bartender there should have realized he was drunk and stopped serving him.<BR/><BR/>The phone at Stan's went unanswered yesterday. Efforts to reach Dene and Martucci were unsuccessful.<BR/><BR/>Baron said Butler was not up to an interview.<BR/><BR/>LOAD-DATE: May 27, 2002Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17131504991384964006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8746822.post-1125361899849236382005-08-29T19:31:00.000-05:002005-08-29T19:31:00.000-05:00you mean 761...ah, well, yankeefan math...jonas.bo...you mean 761...<BR/><BR/>ah, well, yankeefan math...<BR/><BR/>jonas.<BR/>boston.Conscience Warriorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13487448481194494386noreply@blogger.com
