Nathaniel Jackson, who lives in northern Indiana's Adams County, alleges in his lawsuit that as he entered Conseco Fieldhouse for a March 11, 2005 game against Golden State he was asked to take part in a free-throw shooting contest during a time out. Jackson, who is in his mid-20s, initially declined, saying he was recovering from back surgery but was assured that "there would be no reason for concern or injury," according to the lawsuit, which was fil ed March 2 in Marion Superior Court. After taking part in the free-throw contest, the lawsuit states that Jackson began to leave the basketball court but was tackled from behind by the team 's mascot, "Boomer," a 6-foot-tall blue cat with gold whiskers. The employee who knew about Jackson's back surgery immediately told the masc ot about the surgery, and Boomer responded by kicking at Jackson's legs, the lawsuit alleges. The complaint names the Pacers organization, Conseco Fieldhouse and the unidentified performer who portrays Boomer, and accuses them of negligence. Jackson's lawsuit seeks compensation for his medical bills, lost income, pain,suffering and "permanent injuries," which are not detailed in the complaint. In a statement released Thursday, the Pacers declined comment, saying team officials had not reviewed the lawsuit. "We have just received word about the filing of this lawsuit. Until we can review the details and speak with all parties concerned, we will withhold com ment," the statement said. Jackson's lawyers declined comment on his behalf, saying they would prefer to allow the lawsuit stand for itself. "Since that was just filed and we're in the midst of litigation and we have been unable to get the case resolved prior to filing suit, I feel the best avenue at this point in time is to let the litigation process continue," said Stanley Rosenblatt, a Fort Wayne lawyer representing Jackson. 近日一位叫做Nathaniel Jackson的球迷起訴Indiana Pacers，Conseco球館和 Pacers的吉祥物"Boomer"的扮演者,原因是由于他們的責任和疏忽使自己受到了"永久傷害" 事情還是在05年的3月11日Pacers与Warriots的比賽中,當時在暫停的時候Jackson 被邀請參加一個罰球比賽的游戲,他以背部做過手術而拒絕參加,不過工作人員說不會有任何風險于是他就參加了.在參加完活動离開時,吉祥物從背后將其絆倒,工作人員向吉祥物解釋Jackson有傷后,吉祥物卻踢了他的腿. 現在Jackson要求被告為自己的醫療、誤工費用以及所遭受的痛苦和“永久性傷害” 進行賠償.目前Pacers球隊官方表示不便發表任何看法. －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－ Pacers的吉祥物當時是在搞什么鬼？ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 222.92.196.9 ※ 編輯: royshine 來自: 222.92.196.9 (03/10 14:17)
