New Toyota to replace toy Yoda ASSOCIATED PRESS PANAMA CITY - A former waitress has settled a lawsuit against Hooters, which she said promised to award her a new Toyota but instead gave her a toy Yoda. David Noll, an attorney for Jodee Berry, said Wednesday that he could not immediately disclose the settlement's details. He did say that Berry can now go to a local car dealership and "pick out whatever type of Toyota she wants." Berry, 27, won a beer sales contest last May at the Panama City Beach Hooters. She believed she had won a new Toyota car. She was blindfolded and led to the restaurant parking lot, but when the blindfold was removed, she found she was the winner of a toy Yoda Star Wars doll. Berry quit the restaurant a week later and filed a lawsuit in August against Gulf Coast Wings Inc., the corporate owner of the local Hooters. The lawsuit alleged breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation. The restaurant's manager, Jared Blair, said the contest was an April Fools' joke. This settlement is unusual in that Hooters did not ask for a sweeping confidentiality agreement, Noll said. "I think that's a recognition of the fact that there's been such an amazing amount of attention focused on this case," he said. "There's not a whole lot of reason to try to hide its existence." |

I didn't mean to piss anybody off with this, I just thought it was funny as hell! Good for her for getting her new Toyota, she probably deserved it.

A local radio station here offered a trip to Miami to watch the Super Bowl a few years ago. Trip included "tickets" to watch the game, dinner and accomidations. 10 couples "won". Loaded them on a bus and drove them to Miami, Manitoba.
A few were pissed, but no one sued. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Same deal last summer on The Fan590 in Toronto. They had a contest to win a round of golf with "Tiger". Promo went on for a few weeks and then they announced the winner and called him up on air. He played his round of golf with Tiger Williams the former Toronto Maple Leaf. I am pretty sure he was just as happy to play golf with an ex-hockey player, and maybe not get his butt kicked as bad on the course.
Yup, no hooters. |
