The Front Runner in this year's Stella Award is Mr. Merv Grazinski,
of Oklahoma City.
In November 2000, Grazinski purchased a brand new 32 foot Winnebago
motor home. On his first trip home, having joined the freeway, he set the
cruise control at 70 mph and calmly left the driver's seat to go into the
back and make himself a cup of coffee. Not surprisingly the Winnie left
the freeway, crashed and overturned.
Grazinski sued Winnebago for not advising him in the handbook that he
couldn't actually do this. He was awarded $1,750,000plus
a new Winnie.
Winniebago actually changed their handbooks on the back of this court
case, just in case there are any other complete morons buying their vehicles.
