North Carolina Fan Sues Dodgers, Citing BuzzBallz Injury at Dodger Stadium

The lawsuit contends a round alcohol container fell or was thrown from above, reflecting a foreseeable spectator hazard the team failed to address.

Overview

  • Jennifer Wagner filed the complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court on March 3, 2026, seeking unspecified damages and a jury trial.
  • The suit says a BuzzBallz container struck her shoulder during the Aug. 6, 2025 Dodgers-Cardinals game, causing pain, bruising, swelling and loss of normal use.
  • The filing alleges the team knew or should have known that serving beverages in throwable containers in elevated areas posed a foreseeable risk to spectators.
  • Wagner says her children witnessed the incident and suffered emotional distress, and that the family’s planned Los Angeles and Disneyland trip was disrupted.
  • A Dodgers spokesperson declined to comment on pending litigation, and CBS News reports Wagner is representing herself.
