Tigger in trouble....

Firecat · January 7th, 2007, 5:27 AM

This is my town, so I have to post this story...

http://www.local6.com/news/10685989/detail.html

At Disney World the 'Tigger' character allegedly punched some kid.

Of course, a home video is included as well as a string of photos showing each frame.

Not the first time 'Tigger' has been in trouble, he was accused of molesting a girl a while ago, but found not guilty.

I'm a fan of Tony the Tiger myself.

These Tiggers are out of control! OK that’s all the racist jokes i can make.

Ok, so some kid got punched by a beloved character. I for one think there should be more of this; Santa hands out coal, and Tigger hands out cans of whoop ass. Maybe this will teach kids some respect. In my world everyone would get a sever ass kicking once in their life by a large fuzzy character, teaches humility. Get the Rock to dress up as Barney and kick that shit from Malcolm in the Middle down to Mexico where Shannon Elizabeth dressed as Mini Mouse teaches him to suck eggs.

Meh, I'm sure the kid had it coming... images/smilies/tongue.gif

CyberMonkey · January 7th, 2007, 12:44 PM

I'm quite sure too images/smilies/smile.gif

. People working there don't start hitting customers just for fun.

Cobol74 · January 7th, 2007, 12:51 PM

I have worked with the public and I can tell you as individuals people are almost always really really nice, but as a 'mass' yuk, you get the odd one who will make your life a hell! Alternatively Tigger was temprementally unsuited to his/her role. I will never ever work directly dealing with the public ever again, I value life and limb too much.

Momentum57 · January 7th, 2007, 5:02 PM

^^ you worked with the PUBLIC... Sweet dancing abraham, you need a medal of honour or something. I would never work with the PUBLIC much less walk the streets with the common people.

Alright but seriously i hated customers in all of my job as a kid. I served ice cream and would have people walk up and ask "do you serve ice cream?" I would pretend i was deaf to make them yell at me and look like an idiot. Or tell kids we couldnt sell to them unless they had ID, being too young to drive they would go nuts and cry.

This isn't his first assault...

anyone else think it didnt look too much like a punch? It looked like the kid lost his balance and Tigger was trying to stop him from falling over. The guy in the Tigger costume puts his hand on the kid's shoulder afterwards.
could just be a misunderstanding

Momentum57 · January 7th, 2007, 9:22 PM

This just in: Whinnie the Pooh and friends are collecting for Tigger's bail. The notorious Pooh and the gang are said to be holding Christopher Robin for ransom, although police feel that this is a scam as that letter only asked for honey. A phone call was recived by the police and sounds like Eeyore although the speach was very wordy and could have been written by Owl. No further information is currently been released and only leads to the question if the Rabbit will be present, whom has a past fornication problem and could rape.

BerserkerCatSplat · January 7th, 2007, 9:28 PM

Hahaha, it looks like Tigger tripped over the curb, started to fall over and drag the kid with him, so he tried to keep the kid upright while steadying himself. That was no punch!

M3lover · January 7th, 2007, 9:43 PM

You can't really see much around you in those costumes. This is from someone who has been "in" a Chicken (Only once, never to be repeated again) with small kids running all around.

"Tigger" could have just been reaching for the guys shoulder or something. I really don't see the big problem...

Devon · January 8th, 2007, 9:43 AM

I saw this on the news tonight, Tigger did not punch that "kid"...

Why haven't I heard about this! I need to watch the local news more, I suppose. Friggin tourists, if it wasn't for them I'd go to Orlando more often. Actually, I take that back...most tourists don't know about Wall Street...

The news reader Tiffany Tift, what sort of name is that her parents must have been off their dials.

The kid was laughing plus tigger didnt have his claws out.

What? You mean this could just be another idiot looking for some easy cash to extort from a big, juicy, rich target? Ya don't say! images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

matt2000 · January 9th, 2007, 9:10 PM

i saw this on the news this morning (stupid UK TV always behind) and at first i thought 'serves the little shit right' but when i saw it it was hardly a punch, especially with furry gloves on. it does look like he tripped on the step, so i think it was an accident.

typical overacting dad made a big thing of it tho, and the stupid news reporter on that site saying he 'got him in an armlock and then hit him with the left hook' images/smilies/lol.gif

"In a statement made to the sheriff's office, Fedelem said he was acting in self-defense. He claims that the child was pulling on his costume, causing him to lose his breath, according to the Local 6 News report."
