Kobe Bryant Being Hit With Lawsuit

Los Angeles Laker Kobe Bryant is being sued by an Arkansas man, who claims the Los Angeles Lakers star deliberately elbowed him during a Memphis Grizzlies' game last year.

Bill Geeslin sat in the stands when the Lakers played in Memphis last Nov. 14. His three-page federal lawsuit filed Tuesday claims that Bryant came off the court during play, landed on Geeslin and "without provocation" committed assault and battery when he struck Geeslin with his elbow.

Geeslin claims seeks more than $75,000 in damages for unspecified injuries that required medical attention.

We're sure that this fan did nothing to provoke Bryant if in fact he did elbow him on purpose which remains to be seen. It's amazing to see that people will file lawsuits on anything at all in the U.S. What did it slip their mind to do it say 9 months ago, or did they file suit when he realized he might actually have to pay a medical bill? The lawsuit comes a year and a day after the incident occurred.
