What would you do if you tried out for a TV game show and they turned you down? Well, of course, there’s only one thing to do: strap something to yourself, walk into a law office, and tell people it’s a bomb:
Ten floors of a building in San Francisco’s Financial District were evacuated Monday afternoon after a man caused a bomb scare by walking into a law firm with a suspicious device strapped to him, police said.San Francisco police spokesman Sgt. Neville Gittens said a man in his 30s walked into a law office on the 30th floor of a building at 275 Battery St. around 12:40 p.m.
Witnesses said the man said he was angry because he had not been selected to appear on the TV game show, “The Price is Right.”

errk, some people's children. It isn't as if strapping a bomb to one's self is bound to make you more likely to get on the show. As a matter of fact, I'm inclined to think that he just shot his chances to hell with his brilliant little stunt.
