Proud Moment in Tort Law

Austin Aitken, who obviously forgot how to operate the on/off switch on his remote control, claims he vomited while watching an episode of NBC's "Fear Factor" in which contestants ate cuisinarted rats. He's suing the network for $2.5 million. Asked if he thougth he'd prevail, Aitken replied, "I just put any figure. You really think I expect to get 2.5 million?" Nope, but that doesn't stop him from using the court system as his personal lottery.
