“…(plaintiff) was at the hotel waterpark and went down the “Cyclone†waterslide. When he stood up in the pool below the slide’s trough, the complaint states, he was hit by another rider. The collision caused him to fall 
backward and sideways, striking his head and neck on the slide’s trough…”
A Waukesha man has filed suit against Country Springs Hotel, saying it was negligent when it allowed a rider to travel down a waterslide after him, resulting in a collision. Robert and Dale Flowers, a married couple residing in Avalon Square Senior Housing in downtown Waukesha, filed a personal injury lawsuit Wednesday in Waukesha County Circuit Court against Country Springs Hotel. The couple is seeking unspecified damages from the incident that occurred nearly three years ago, according to the complaint.
The lawsuit claims Country Springs Hotel did not have a video feed available to employees to tell them when a rider cleared the slide. Instead, they have one employee at the top of the waterslide telling riders when to go and another at the bottom of the slide.
Robert Flowers received “pain, suffering and disability, hospital expense, medical expense, loss of earnings and earning capacity,†according to the lawsuit. His wife, Dale, “sustained the loss of services, society and companionship of her husband,†according to the complaint.
