NIGHTMARE FUEL: Vegas Hotel Guest Stung In Testicles By Scorpion

A man enjoying some time in Las Vegas experienced what can only be described as the ultimate nightmare scenario.

As everyone knows, I'm a huge fan of Vegas. It's a great city full of interesting people and fun times. You can gamble and crush beer. It's an awesome time……unless a scorpion finds its way into your underwear.

Michael Farchi was staying at The Venetian in Sin City when he allegedly experienced something no man on the planet wants to experience:

Being stung in the family jewels by a scorpion.

Man stung in the testicles by a scorpion while at Las Vegas resort.

"I just felt like somebody stabbing me in my private area. It felt like a sharp glass or a knife.I went to the restroom, and I saw a scorpion hanging on my underwear," Farchi explained to 8NewsNow.com.

Farchi wrote on an incident report that he was in "a lot of pain" following the sting. Yeah, that probably didn't even need to be noted. The man took a scorpion sting to his genitals. That's the kind of pain no woman can even begin to imagine.

What did The Venetian do in order to help remedy the situation? The popular high-end Vegas resort allegedly comped Farchi's room.

If I took a shot to my testicles from a scorpion and the best offer was a comped room, I wouldn't exactly be satisfied. I'm going to need a fully comped bill at whatever steakhouse is on site.

I truly can't imagine a worse Las Vegas experience than being stung in the testicles by a scorpion. I'm in physical pain just thinking about it. Farchi compared it to sharp glass ripping into the most valuable part of his body. If that doesn't make you physically cringe, then I guess you're a stronger man than me.

And for everyone out there who thinks getting hit in the groin can't be that bad, trust me when I say it is. I took a shot off a water balloon slingshot - the kind that can launch those bad boys 100+ yards - and I thought I was going to die. Legit thought my life was ending because the pain was so bad.

Michael Farchi had a similar experience, and lived to fight another day. Major respect. Let me know what you think of his Las Vegas nightmare at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
