Newark Man Claims Botched Penile Implant Gave Him 8 Month Erection [View all]

Daniel Metzgar has a bone to pick with his doctor.

The 44-year-old New Jersey trucker had an erection that lasted eight months, and said in court that his hard times were the result of a botched penile implant he received in December 2009, according to the Delaware News-Journal.

Metzgar won't stand up for this kind of abuse -- because he can't right now. After the surgery, he claimed in a new lawsuit that his scrotum grew to the size of a volleyball and his engorged pride got in the way of family events and motorcycle riding.

"I could hardly dance, with an erection poking my partner," Metzgar told jurors on Monday. "It’s not something you want to bring out at parties and show to friends."
