History’s Most Outrageous Court Cases

13. Stinky Feet Problems

Can you imagine getting thrown out of a place just because you smelled bad?  What if you were thrown out of an university that you paid good money to attend all because everyone else thought you smelled bad?  That very scenario happened to a man in the Netherlands in this next outrageous court case.

In 1999, Teunis Tenbrook attended Erasmus University. Besides having a cool name, he also had extremely stinky feet. Apparently the smell was so bad that his fellow classmates and the university staff could not be around him. The University kicked him out as a result. Tenbrook sued and after a ridiculously long ten-year court battle, a judge found that the University would just have to “cover their noses”.
