Too Much "Energy" In That Drink?

    A Manhattan man is suing the makers of the energy drink Boost because the drink gave him a three day erection. Christopher Woods claims that he has suffered "pain, shock and mental anguish" after drinking Boost in June of 2004. He started to drink the product in order to gain weight, but a day after drinking Boost, his pains began. From the Post:

    The suit says [Woods] used the "product in accordance with its intended use" - and soon had a very visible side effect.

    He said the erection lasted for over three days, and his girlfriend "was in disbelief. She couldn't understand what was happening."

    "It was awful. It was painful. I would always wear jeans, but it was hard to go out, so I had to buy some sweatpants," Woods said. He said his 7-year-old son asked him what was going on and "I didn't know what to tell him."

    He saw a doctor and underwent a "winter shunt" - a painful procedure where a needle is used to drain blood. The suit says he experienced "persistent problems requiring a follow-up hospital visit" a week later.

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Will we see the stock at Pfizer (makers of Viagra) drop because of this news? ;) The guy's last name almost makes it seem like a hoax! :D

    I think they have bigger problems if his girlfriend didn't know what was happening. She could have put an end to it :D

    Lucky bastard.
    He's gonna drain alot of money from Boost for that erection, and maybe even open a new possibility for Boost to go up against Pfizer :eek:

    Why would he want to go outside anyway? He should have stayed at home with his gf for 3 days and sent his 7 year old to stay with his grandparents or something.

    It would probably be very mentally draining and hurt like heck.
