Fuel Sports Eats & Beats bar in Seattle is hosting a very bizarre event night. Sleezy events at bars are nothing new, but this one takes the cake.
Titled ‘Hot for Teacher’, this twisted publicity stunt will be hosted by Mary K LeTourneau, a teacher who spent seven and a half years in jail for having sexual relations with a sixth grade student. Apparently Mary K LeTourneau later married the student, Vili Fualaau, with whom she is pictured in the following gallery.
Mike Morris, the owner of Fuel Sports Eats & Beats, claims the event is all in fun and that he hopes people take it in the right spirit.
