Former NBA baller Glen Rice has confirmed that he had a one-night stand with Sarah Palin back in 1987 while he was playing for the University of Michigan in a college basketball tournament in Alaska. At the time, Palin was a sports reporter for a local TV station.

The story came up after the National Enquirer snagged some info from Joe McGinniss’s new book The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin. In the book, McGinnis quotes Rice as confirming the story. According to a source, McGinniss says that the then-future Alaskan governor had a “fetish” for African-American men at the time.

The book also claims that Palin used cocaine and marijuana, and had a long affair with her husband’s business partner.

A 290-pound New York state man is suing his local White Castle restaurant. No, he’s not suing them for causing his weight gain. He’s suing them for not having big enough seats.

Martin Kessman, 64, said he first realized he couldn’t fit into the booths at the Nanuet White Castle in April 2009 and complained to the restaurant in writing. He claims he received three “very condescending letters” in return — along with coupons for free burgers.

Kessman said restaurant officials promised to put in larger seats, but they have failed to do so almost two years later.

“I just want to sit down like a normal person”Kessman said.

His lawsuit is seeking larger chairs at the restaurant and unspecified damages.
