Lawsuit: Man Wakes Up to Scorpion Stinging Him in Groin at Las Vegas Resort


A California man is suing a Las Vegas resort after he said a scorpion stung him in a very sensitive area while he was sleeping.

Michael Farchi told KABC that he is still suffering from health issues months after that fateful morning, December 26, at the Venetian Resort, located on the Vegas strip.

“I woke up with sharp pain in my private area,” he recounted. “Didn’t know what it was. I reached my hand to see what was happening under the covers and got another sharp pain.”

Farchi was on vacation with his family when he says he discovered a scorpion on his boxers after feeling three or four stings.

“I just felt like somebody stabbing me in my private area,” he told KLAS. “It felt like a sharp glass or a knife.”

Photos provided by Farchi and his attorney show the small orange creature, though the exact species was not named.

“I didn’t even ask how it got in the room,” the victim said. “It was just under my cover.”

He reported the incident to Venetian staff, saying he had been “bitten by a scorpion on my groin/testicles” around 8:00 a.m., and that doctors at a local hospital had determined that he had in fact suffered from a scorpion sting.

Farchi’s family cut their stay at the hotel short and checked out the next day.

Heard about this on the radio this morning.
From the headline, you'd think he was camping in the desert, not at the Venetian.

So if you got stung by a bee would he sue as well??

I guess I need to sue Big Lots!
Was at Big Lots with the boys once and my middle boy was maybe 3 we were just walking along and he lets out a blooding curdling scream and hit the floor.
I picked him up and he said his privates hurt. Took him to the bathroom and checked and right there on his sack was a big black spider and a clear bite mark.

Did not even think that I could have profited off such things.

You only had to worry about crabs and maybe bed bugs in Vegas, but scorpions !?

I’m actually at the Venetian now for a concert. I heard that story this morning on the local news. The reporter jokingly said that the guy must have pretty big balls to sue a place like Venetian.

All the well, I’m glad I’m staying at another hotel.

Color me skeptical of his story.

I picked some crabs once. In Munich at Oktoberfest!
I had a fine time and the crabs seemed to enjoy it, too.
