Tigger cleared of all charges

This entry was published at least two years ago (originally posted on August 5, 2004). Since that time the information may have become outdated or my beliefs may have changed (in general, assume a more open and liberal current viewpoint). A fuller disclaimer is available.

In a recent trial in Florida, a Disney employee was found not guilty of fondling a 13 year old girl while posing in a Tigger costume for photographs. My favorite part of the article was a series of photos in which the defense attorney tried on a Tigger costume in order to demonstrate how difficult it can be to know exactly where one’s hands are placed while suited up. The photos are priceless…

Book him, Dan-o

“Book him, Dan-o.”

Tigger being arrested

“This creep’s been pouncing on people all over the Hundred Acre Wood again.”

Check everywhere

“Hey! Is the full-body cavity search really necessary, guys?”

I'm innocent!

Tigger pleaded innocent, claiming that pouncing is “what Tiggers do best!”

The Tigger macarena

After being let go with a warning, the courtroom quickly cleared as Tigger celebrated by performing the Macarena.

iTunes: “Macarena (Mezcla Guerrillera)” by Los Del Rio from the album Macarena Non Stop (1996, 5:36).
