Yet another strange lawsuit has been filed against Disneyland. The AIDS Services Foundation of Orange County has also been named as defendant in the suit. Lauren Ulrich claims that she was injured by Darth Vader during the 2011 AIDS Walk at Disneyland. According to the lawsuit, "A Disneyland employee dressed up as Darth Vader was standing next to plaintiff and attempted to 'shoo' a bird away by swinging his right arm. Upon doing so, he hit plaintiff in the back, causing her severe injuries."

The woman is asking for more than $25,000 to cover medical expenses.
