Judge's Barry and Barney punishment

Tuesday, November 25 01:41 pm

A US judge has been hailing his "horrible punishment" for youngsters who continually play their music too loud.

Judge Paul Sacco, in Fort Lupton, Colorado, makes teen noise polluters sit in a locked room and listen to the Barry Manilow hit Copacabana for a whole hour at full volume.
They are also made to sit through records by Dolly Parton, Karen Carpenter and, er, Barney the Dinosaur.

Judge Sacco says it has helped cut the number of repeat offenders in the town.

He said: "When you have a person playing rap at extreme volumes all over the city, and they have to sit down and listen for an hour to Barry Manilow, it's horrible punishment."

Teenager Reuben Fuentes said: "You can't fall asleep."

This just totally reminds me of Angel and The Addams Family Values!!!!!

Angel because I still can't hear Mandy without giggling. And The Addams Family Values because of that bit when Wednesday and Pugsley are trapped in that hut, forced to watch Disney and 'happy' movies all day!
