Blinded by his own ball, golfer sues
BRENTWOOD – Paul Sanchez, a 67-year-old "occasional" golfer, sued Candia Woods Golf Links this week over an accident that left him blind in one eye.

Sanchez, of 20 Country Club Drive, Manchester, was golfing with two or three friends in September 2006 when a ball he hit bounced off a yardage-marker and "whacked him" in the right eye, according to his attorney, Barry M. Scotch.

...

In the lawsuit, Sanchez faults the course's owners for failing to warn him about the markers, which are used by golfers to decide what type of club to use and how much effort to put into a swing.

If this lawsuit works out, I have a novel idea for a lawsuit against several porn publishers.

3. No...
it has to do with the idea of something that makes you go blind.

4. Good, because I was going to say you have to be doing something wrong
if you ran the risk of being blinded by your own ball.
