The Wii has often been blamed for broken TV sets, but now it can be blamed for broken faces. A couple were arrested on Christmas Day, quite noticeably bruised, after they got into a physical fight over a Wii game. Fun for all the family!
24-year-old Heath Blom upset his girlfriend, 24-year-old Randi Young, by disparaging the good name of a Wii game he got for Christmas. It is alleged he was throwing a childish tantrum over not receiving a $1000 RC airplane instead. Blom denies wanting the plane before his birthday in April, claiming that “You can’t fly an RC plane in the snow.”
However, Blom does admit to insulting the Wii game he was given by his grandparents instead, upsetting his grandmother and angering his girlfriend. After labeling her boyfriend an ingrate, Randi then called him further names “for not liking the Wii.” I know how Blom feels there, at least.
