Now that's a party 2

Talk about pot luck — a Mid Wales man had a lucky escape when a stag night prank saw him skewered through the groin by a cue.

High-spirited Dave Farmer, a 35-year-old father of one from Llandrindod Wells, had jumped up on to a pub pool table and leapt off straight on to a mate’s upright pool cue.

The item of sporting equipment went straight through Dave’s personal equipment but he was so anaesthetised by the eight pints he had drunk, he wanted to continue the game. (my emphasis)

The cue had pierced his scrotum and soft tissue with the tip exiting via his lower stomach and when his friends saw the blood they rushed him to hospital.

Dave’s injury was stitched up and he was kept in Musgrove Park Hospital in Somerset for two nights. A spokesman for the hospital said: “He was very, very lucky not to have done serious damage.”
