AT THE 9TH annual Delilah's Diamond G-String Competition, dancers used all kinds of props - swords, footballs, hula hoops, stripper's poles and of course, g-strings - to prove their sex appeal in hopes of winning a $10,000 cash prize.
Sarah Berry used a "half moon aerial apparatus" - but her thumb was amputated while she rehearsed before the July 20, 2011, contest, according to a lawsuit filed Friday in Common Pleas Court.
Berry, 35, of Roxborough, claims that Delilah's, the competition's host and creator, failed to ensure that the apparatus was properly designed, built, inspected and tested, and didn't warn users of its dangers, the lawsuit says. She's seeking more than $50,000 in damages for "pain and suffering, disfigurement, humiliation and embarrassment."
