Girl Sues Zulu for Coconut Injury

The Times-Picayune reports that a 14 year old girl was injured by a coconut thrown from a float during the 2004 Zulu parade. The krewe is protected by a state law that states that parade goers assume the risk of being hit by anything traditional thrown from Mardi Gras floats. The suit seeks damages for "physical pain and suffering", and future "emotional and mental anguish."
