Monessen, PA (AHN) - A Monessen, Pennsylvania high school has accepted the resignation of a an art teacher after he won a date with a porn star on a radio show.
Jaison Biagini, who taught art for 14 years in Monessen, near Pittsburgh, says he entered a Sirius satellite radio contest on the 'Bubba the Love Sponge' show because it would win him with a free weekend in Tampa. Biagini said he was interested in visiting the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg. The teacher won, and took off for Tampa, where he met porn star Akira.
But, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Biagini, who uses a wheelchair, said he felt the sponsors had made fun of his disability. To make matters worse, the school also asked him to step down after the stunt. School board officials say that despite his artistic intentions, Biagini knew what "he was getting into when he entered the contest."
