A Queens Pathmark is being sued by a woman who ended up covered in tomato sauce. No, 55-year-old Patricia Samaroo didn't get the tomato treatment following a bad comedy routine, she simply ended up the victim of a toppled-over stack of sauce jars when a display collapsed on top of her at the Ozone Park grocery store. Samaroo says that nine months after the accident, she still has pain in her neck and uses painkillers for the incident that left her "sick, lame, sore and disabled." What drew the Long Islander to the unstable stack—famous last words: "It was on sale." Samaroo's suit claims that Pathmark was negligent for failing to determine if jars were likely to topple and fall. She tells the News, "I was in shock when it happened. All I know is that I was covered in spaghetti sauce." While there is no surveillance video of the incident, we did find a disaster from the Canadian version of Supermarket Sweep after the jump that might suffice.

That's why you don't pick the jar from the bottom that looks like it's providing structural support.
This lawsuit is a hilarious waste of time and money. If she were to win, grocery stores would have to keep all items below eye level, and not stack anything higher than 2 cans.
Personal responsibility teaches us that the can of palm hearts that came crashing down from the top shelf causing severe retinal damage is your own fault.
The store should have tossed some mozzarella on her.
not if she's a vegan, then she'd really be pissed. Yes, anytime veganism is mentioned, it's at least somewhat of a stab at FTC2, especially when the commenter above you is valeriob
love u too =)
Don't tell me, Ms. Samaroo is an unemployed welfare queen looking for a windfall. And no I don't know nor give a damn about her race. There are plenty of white welfare queens in this country looking for a lawsuit.
Awesome video!
