    Maybe not in Bangkok, but if they tried that here in the US they would be sued because some dufus would've cut his gums with a wood stick from a popsickle resembling a tooth brush.

    Hey, if you can get millions from Mc Donals for having too hot the hot coffee....

    @ubermex: It was HER choice to put it there. She knew the coffee was hot and decided to put it IN HER LAP.

    Her reward should have been a trip with Travis (watch Old Yeller) behind a woodshed.

    It's ridiculous what people can sue about and win. If I got hot coffee I'd be happy. I'm surprised the judge/jury didn't force every restaurant to serve every drink at room temperature and forced people to either heat it or cool it themselves.

    @ubermex: Because she still would have sued if her coffee was too cold. She's in the same idiot boat as the rest of sue happy america.

    People don't use common sense or even their brains anymore. We have to have warning labels on everything because people are too unfocused on their surroundings or even their own actions to do anything without hurting themselves and then suing someone. People are greedy, and a good bit of them lack any intelligence to speak of. Anyone with half a brain doesn't place piping hot coffee between their legs!

    The lady couldn't accept that the accident was her fault and not McDonald's.

    @technoindigo: It's sad that so many people still think they know all the facts about this case. The perception of a greedy old woman dumb enough to burn herself says much of the power of PR and the gullibility of Americans.

    We discussed this case in a business school class. 700 incidents had been filed by others and several settled before this one. The award was reduced to $480k. She had never sued anyone before, and only did so after they refused to pay only for her medical care.

    But this woman couldn't afford the public relations McDonalds did. There was no media story after the trial with the follow up details. By then it was old news and wasn't a catchy enough headline.

    When a multi-billion dollar corporation seems like the victim and an 80 year old woman is the criminal WHY DON'T YOU QUESTION IT?

    It's just a gimmick by the icecream makers to give you even less ice cream for an already ridiculously overpriced non essential commodity.

    The bigger the wooden stick, the less icecream they have to use per bar.
