Guv Sports Black Eye In Work Return

Gov. Butch Otter is sporting a shiner today, after a tree limb he was cutting over the weekend snapped back and hit him in the face. “With those windstorms that came through, I can’t tell you how many trees I’ve lost,” Otter said. “It was a cottonwood tree, and they’re pretty springy.” His chainsaw had stopped working, so he was cutting the limb with a buck saw when he got smacked. “It was under some tension, and bingo, she snapped and hit me in the eye,” Otter said. He added, “I should’ve spent some time making up a more romantic story”/ Betsy Russell, Eye On Boise. More here.

Question: When did you last have a black eye? How did you get it?
