Man Denied Mother's Day Tote Bag At MLB Game Sues Angels Baseball Team
<snip>

SANTA ANA, Calif. -- A Los Angeles man who was denied a red nylon tote bag during a Mother's Day promotion at an Angels baseball game has filed a sex and age discrimination lawsuit against the team.

The class action claim filed by Michael Cohn alleges that thousands of males and fans under age 18 are entitled to $4,000 in damages each because they were treated unequally at last May's promotion.

Women over 18 received the gifts.

Angel officials said Cohn was the only person who complained about the giveaway and that the team is proud of its promotions.

This weekend's Mother's Day promotion will offer tote bags to the first 25,000 fans over age 18, regardless of their gender.

An Angels spokesman would not say whether the change was in response to Cohn's complaint. But Cohn's lawyer said the altered promotion still violates the civil rights of fans under age 18.
