The saga of Jose Canseco's finger — yes, the finger he recently shot off and had surgically reattached — has apparently taken another equally tragic and squeamish turn.

While participating in a poker tournament on Thursday night, Canseco claims the finger just fell off, and he has the witnesses to back him up. He even says one person was taking video when it happened.



Canseco was attempting to clean his gun on Oct. 28 when it accidentally fired and took his finger off in the process. He was hoping to keep the finger, obviously, but if we're to believe what we're reading he's experienced a setback that will be difficult to overturn.

For the record, we have not seen the video, nor has it been released anywhere to our knowledge. At this point, we're more than happy to take Canseco at his word while awaiting the next chapter in the curious story of his detached digit.
