Any punishment that isn't a fine, jail time, or community service is unusual by definition because those are the typical consequences. However, it is written into our laws that a judge may deviate from this norm if they feel it more suitable. So yes, a judge could interpret this as unusual, but I they have the legal freedom to decide it's not.

She was also given a choice so she isn't being forced into the "unusual" punishment. She chose it over conventional punishments.

What's cruel about it? It seems akin to community service which is handed down as legal punishment all the time.

Ah that sucks. I guess I should have seen that coming. Some people just won't learn =/ I wish there was a better way to prevent these parents from ruining the game for everyone.

Some little leagues have a similar rule. If a parent verbally abuses an umpire enough that parent must umpire a certain number of games to see just how hard it is. Punishment fits the crime perfectly.

The casings can be pig intestine. The meat itself is not pig.

One of my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh cards as a kid was essentially this.

Found it.

My neighbor had so many weird yet charming movies we didn't have in our house. There was this one where I think an English man took care of an otter for some reason? It was also at this neighbor's house that I first saw Monty Python and the Holy Grail for the first time. We had those 1am sillies and were in a permanent giggle fit.
