Police Wonder If This Was An April Fools Prank

POSTED: 7:04 am EDT April 4, 2006

SALISBURY, Md. -- A Fruitland, Md., man became stuck to a toilet seat early Sunday morning at a Denny's restaurant in Salisbury, Md., when he used the restroom.

Police said someone had put glue on the seat.

Authorities said customers called 911 after the man yelled for help.

Paramedics took the man and the seat to the hospital, where it was removed.

Police are wondering if putting the glue on the seat was somebody's idea of an April Fools Day prank.

In a similar case, a man in Colorado found himself glued to a toilet seat at a Home Depot in 2003. That man sued the home improvement chain last year.

Lots of mineral oil, petroleum jelly, and patience. Particularly, lots of patience.

I am curious on the type of glue. It had to be a quick setting type. Maybe liquid nail. I think they needed more than mineral oil to undo that. Some kind of chemicals. I dunno, either way that had to suck for him.

I don't sit on public toilets anyway...yuk! Do the squat!! lol
And if you have bad balance or something and MUST sit, wouldn't you at least wipe the seat first?

Ok, excuse me while I go hurl. I can't believe I'm talking about this.

Some public restrooms provide dispensers of toilet seat liners, too.
