Crazy Law Suit: Subway Sandwich isn't a true "foot long"

 While watching the nightly "NBC Five" news last week, I saw a very strange news story. A man named Nguyen Buren  from the North side of Chicago went into a nearby Subway with measuring tape and found out that  his footlong was just one inch shy of twelve inches.  Many would think that being an inch too short is no big deal--I mean come on, it's just a sandwich.
  But this sandwich controversy could be worth  more than just your "five dollar footlong" because Buren is allegedly seeking damages in excess of 5 million dollars for misrepresentation of a product. 
 I personally think this is beyond ridiculous and shows how desperate people are to get money. Ever since the '92 McDonald's coffee case, where a women was awarded with 3 million dollars for damages after spilling hot coffee on her lap, people will make unfathomable claims to be awarded money in court.

Do you think this man is crazy for asking for five million dollars over missing one inch of a footlong?
