Tennie, like others in the fire station he worked out of, enjoyed pulling and watching practical jokes. Until one was turned against him. Some of his co-workers fed him some spaghetti with dog food mixed into it. AND they laughed while he ate it. Some stories concerning this say his nickname was ‘Dog’. Well Tennie claimed they did it because he was a black man. In effect he claimed his co-workers were/are racists and Tennie Pierce sued the city because of them. The City Council approved a $2.7 million settlement. The Mayor, after learning more facts concerning the affair and seeing pictures of Tennie Pierce pulling pranks on others, vetoed the settlement. Wednesday (27Nov06) the city council could not get the votes needed to override the veto.
Yep...it is interesting

What Alda said is true...but to add he is now entering a lawsuit to have the mayor's ruling overturned. I believe they go to court next month.
