Greetings fellow Bizarros:

99 cent showA video went viral Easter weekend. A man in an Easter Bunny costume was recorded throwing punches outside of a club in Orlando, Florida. You can hear people in the crowd chanting, "Kick his @ss!" And another yells, "Go, Easter Bunny, go!"

Eventually an Orlando police officer steps in to break up the fight. Nobody was arrested after the scuffle, and the bunny brawler remained anonymous, that is until the video became so popular. Not one to pass up on his sudden fame (and any money that might come with it) the bunny brawler quickly created an Instagram profile and reached out to multiple media outlets, including TMZ and Orlando's WKMG.

But once his identity was revealed and his background investigated, it turns out the boxing bunny might have wanted to stay behind the costume.

The man in the costume, 20-year-old Antoine McDonald, claimed he was defending a woman when cameras caught him in the fight on Easter Sunday. McDonald said he and a few friends were out for a few drinks when he claims he saw a man spit on a woman. A fight broke out and McDonald said, "I just ran over there."

He said he's not a violent person. "I am the type of person to avoid fights by any means necessary," he said, but his history indicates otherwise.

As it turns out, McDonald is wanted in New Jersey in connection with a vehicle burglary last fall, and he was also recently a "person of interest" in a carjacking and two armed robberies in Pasco County, according to the Pasco County Sheriff's Office. Sounds real stable.

At least we now know what he was doing in Florida; lying low from the New Jersey police.

Bizarrely,
Lewis

Nursing Home Sued For Hiring Strippers

A Long Island nursing home is likely going to be sued after allegedly hiring a male stripper to entertain its elderly residents during a party in the recreational room. During a visit to the East Neck Nursing Center in West Babylon, the son of 85-year-old Bernice Youngblood discovered a photo that appears to show the woman slipping money into a male stripper's briefs. "Plaintiff Bernice Youngblood was placed in apprehension of imminent, offensive, physical harm, as she was confused and bewildered as to why a muscular, almost nude man, was approaching her and placing his body and limbs, over [her]," according to the suit. The suit alleges that when the son, Franklin Youngblood, confronted a staff member about the photo, "the staffer lunged at him and tried to snatch the picture away." "Bernice Youngblood has lived 85 years as a traditional Baptist, hard-working, lady... And now she has been defiled," attorney John Ray told the New York Post. According to the lawsuit, the striptease was done "for the perverse pleasure and enjoyment of the Defendant's staff."



Florida Man Arrested After Failed Panty Raid

A Florida man who was allegedly attempting to steal panties, towels and other laundry items was arrested and charged with burglary and petit theft. The Gonzalez family was sleeping in when a loud noise woke them up. "We heard a big boom sound. My husband got up, ran to my kids' room," mother Janet Gonzalez reported. With baseball bats in hand, the family went downstairs to investigate and noticed a bicycle outside with some of their things piled alongside of it. "It's very odd because he [the suspect] had our laundry detergent, towels and laundry basket," Gonzalez said. After looking all over, the family finally realized there was someone hiding in the downstairs bathroom. Suspect Manual Rodriguez was trapped in the bathroom after all the family members piled against the door so he couldn't get out. When deputies arrived to arrest the 21-year-old, they didn't find any weapons on him, but they did find something else. "He had my little girl's panties in his pockets and one on the sink," Gonzalez said. "To me only a sick, perverted person would do that... Get help." No one was harmed during the burglary attempt.



READER COMMENTS

I don't think it's funny that some assh0le swung a lizard around by its tail. It's still animal abuse. Would you think it's funny if somebody went into a restaurant and started swinging a puppy around by its tail?
[If it was a Perkins Restaurant, yeah. But I never said the story was funny. I said it was bizarre.]


That 'Granny Hulk' story really made me feel shitty about myself. Thanks a lot. I'm half her age and the heaviest thing I've lifted all year is a case of beer off the liquor store shelf.


I have to admit; I'm impressed with this Captain Marvel watching record. I couldn't stand to watch the trailer more than once.
