Amber Zabran from Illinois filed a lawsuit against The Nerd bar in Las Vegas after she claims she was injured when thrown from a mechanical penis ride shaped like male genitals and operating like a mechanical bull. She alleges that staff made the ride more difficult over time, leading to her being tossed off with her foot or ankle caught under a cut-out section of the ride. Zabran is seeking unspecified medical costs exceeding $15,000 without specific figures provided for other damages. The bar promotes this unique attraction frequently online but did not require waivers before riding, according to the lawsuit.

Story summary
Amber Zabran, a woman from Illinois, filed a lawsuit last week in Clark County, Nevada court after being injured at The Nerd at the Neonopolis bar in Las Vegas. Zabran claims she was thrown off a mechanical penis-shaped ride and her foot or ankle got caught under a large cut-out section, sustaining serious physical injuries. The bar frequently promotes the gyrating "Johnson Mechanical Member Bull" on its webpage and social media, challenging patrons to stay atop the ride like a mechanical bull. Despite not being asked to sign waivers before using the attraction, Zabran asserts that staff made the ride more difficult, contributing to her injury. She is suing for injuries that may be permanent, though specifics of how she was injured are unclear from the report.
