I feel like we should stop reposting this without the context that it is false.

CLAIM: After throwing a boomerang that hit his head upon its return, a man in Kentucky won a lawsuit he filed against himself for $300,000.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. The story is fictional. It first appeared in a 1996 edition of Weekly World News, a publication known for publishing made-up claims.

Well darn.
