Comedian gets, some respect in suit against casino
By TIM DAHLBERG
Associated Press Writer
LAS VEGAS Rodney Dangerfield was awarded
$725,000 yesterday by a jury that believed the come
dian's eye problems were caused by a steam bath
accident at Caesars Palace.
Dangerfield sued the casino-hotel for $5 million after
Caesars balked at paying him for shows he missed
after he claimed he was burned in a steam bath in
March 1988.
"We showed Rodney some respect," an unidentified
juror said after Dangerfield thanked jurors as they left
U.S. District Court.
The jury deliberated less than a day before award
ing Dangerfield $225,000 for five missed performances

and $500,000 for pain and suffering.
The jury ruled that Dangerfield's contract obligated
Caesars to pay for the missed shows because the
injury should have excused him from performing. It
rejected a $lOO,OOO countersuit filed by Caesars against
its former headliner.
"The truth won out," said Dangerfield. He decried
as "nonsense and untrue" Caesars' accusations that
he used drugs.
"I'm surprised they went to that level to degrade me
falsely like they did," Dangerfield said. "All they did
in this entire trial was to try to degrade my character.
"I wasn't concerned with the amount of money," he
said. "Money is money. I was concerned about the
truth. I was right. I wouldn't have gone through this
unless I was right."

Dangerfield said Henry Gluck, chairman of the
resort's parent Caesars World Inc., had refused an
offer to settle for $225,000.
"We're very disappointed," said Bruce Aguilera,
attorney for the casino. "We'll have to have our law
yers look at the case.
Dangerfield sought $5 million in damages plus
$45,000 for each show hamissed the week of the acci
dent.
The hotel, in its countersuit, accused Dangerfield
of breaching his contract and contended during the

permanent damage..

by a burst of steam as he opened the door to the steam
room on March 16, 1988.
