NEW YORK - A man has sued the maker of the health drink Boost Plus, claiming the vitamin-enriched beverage gave him an erection that would not subside and caused him to be hospitalized.
The lawsuit filed by Christopher Woods of New York said he bought the nutrition beverage made by the pharmaceutical company Novartis AG at a drugstore on June 5, 2004, and drank it.
Woods’ court papers say he woke up the next morning “with an erection that would not subside” and sought treatment that day for the condition, called severe priapism.
So Woods' wood wouldn't go away, eh? This poor fellow underwent surgery to implant a Winter shunt to move blood from one area to another. When that didn't work, he had a penile artery embolization to close off some blood flow to prevent continued engorgement and lessen the likelihood of an erection.
I wonder how long he's had this problem? Since June 5, 2004? Surgery seems so drastic. Couldn't the guy have just hired a few hookers to take care of the problem?

Saw this article today and thought to myself--"better tell Michael about that."
Should've known it wouldn't be overlooked.
I'm all about the Boost, brutha!
