Boner of the Day for August 12th, 2020

ROUND ONE

Boner Candidate #1: THE APTLY NAMED “YOUNG AND DUMB” PARTY COMPANY

PROVO, Utah (KUTV) — A Utah County venue owner is speaking out after a Provo gathering Friday appeared to have no masks or social distancing. The party was put on by the company Young/Dumb, co-founded by BYU senior Kwaku El. El says the party drew in hundreds of people. Based on pictures, few seemed to have on masks or to be social distancing. The party was held outdoors and inside at Bill’s Warehouse. The venue owner, Wilford “Ford” Harris, said he was hesitant to allow any gatherings due to coronavirus. He said the Friday night event turned out far differently than he expected. We’re told all the right things. He has a permit from the city, he’s been working directly with the city, it’s going to be completely gated off; full security, fully staffed. Everything was going to be mask-enforced, socially distanced,” Harris said. While they were told one thing — something else happened, Harris said. El, the party organizer, estimated between 200 and 300 people attended. But why hold a party like that during a pandemic? If everyone else is opening up, and school is going to be open in like a day, we may as well just have a party,” El said.

Boner Candidate #3: I’M ON FIRE FOR YOU BABY

Professional stuntman Riky Ash popped the question while aflame, during a decoy photo shoot set up to surprise his girlfriend, Katrina Dobson, a COVID-19-fighting nurse. In a video of the fiery scene, Dobson, 48, is seen in her magenta scrubs before her now-fiancé is set ablaze and drops to his knee — on purpose. The shocked nurse, who said “yes” only after her beau was tamped out with a fire extinguisher, called the stunt, “the perfect proposal.”

ROUND TWO

Boner Candidate #1: YOU TELL ‘EM ALYSSA!

Alyssa Milano’s been super transparent with her social media followers about her ongoing battle with COVID-19 and its frustrating side effects. So when one social media user accused her of lying about her hair loss, the actress stood her ground. The 47-year-old took to Twitter on August 9, 2020, to film a video of herself brushing through her wet strands. “Thought I’d show you what #Covid19 does to your hair,” the actress tweeted. “Please take this seriously. #WearADamnMask #LongHauler.” In the one and a half-minute clip, Milano looks fresh out of the shower in a robe. Using her “favorite detangler brush,” the actress slowly brushed through her locks. Once she was finished, she gave social media users a look at the large clump of hair that came “out of her head.”

Boner Candidate #3: I GUESS HE COULDN’T RESIST

The woman who had her breast fondled by an LAPD officer after she had died last year has been identified by her family who are now suing over the incident. Elizabeth Baggett, 34, died in her home in Los Angeles last October. It’s unclear how she died, but officer David Rojas was among cops who responded to her apartment. When his partner left the room, Rojas turned his bodycam off. He was unaware that the devices continue recording for two minutes after being switched off and, according to prosecutors, he fondled Baggett’s breasts. It’s still unclear what prompted police bosses to check his bodycam footage but they did and he was fired. He pleaded not guilty to sexual contact with human remains without authority.
