From NY Post- A hapless Mets fan tried to make a diving catch when her gold tooth fell into a Citi Field toilet — and got her arm stuck in the commode.
The unidentified woman’s bizarre Flushing adventure happened during last Wednesday’s game against the Atlanta Braves, sources said yesterday.
It’s unclear how long she was trapped screaming in the john, but stadium security guards and emergency medical personnel eventually showed up.
It’s unclear if the toilet had to be destroyed to free her.
There are some things in life which are worth both the risks of injury and public humiliation – fishing a tooth out of a public toilet is not one of them. I’d say the only reason you should ever even attempt this is if the object your after is a wedding ring. After that everything is off limits.
Two weeks ago I knocked a tube of toothpaste off the bathroom counter and into the toilet. I live alone, it is my toilet that only I use. Yet i was petrified of having to reach in and get the toothpaste. Maybe I’m a germaphobe, but I’d like to think the majority of humanity isn’t willingly shoving their hands and arms down toilets to retrieve objects.
At the very least I hope this woman gets a replacement tooth for free for the public embarrassment the ordeal has no doubt caused her. She will never be able to set face in Citi Field again.
