Damn. I thought this was going to be from someone who found my glass eye.

So disappointed, I just may sue OP for IIED.

Could be frivolous. Could be legitimate. Something tells me a ~200 word summary in the Denver Post might not capture all the details.

Y'all should do a quick google on the McDonalds coffee lady and learn how dickheads can turn a legitimate case into a circus act just by omitting important details.
