Lil Wayne Attends "Stop the Violence" Basketball Game, Starts Violence
While Lil Wayne waits for the interminable legal battle over Tha Carter V to wrap up, he’s killing time by showing up hours late to concerts, having his tour bus shot at by rival Blood factions, and participating in charitable activities. Like this “Stop the Violence” celebrity basketball game, where he nearly incited a brawl by spitting on the ref, according to TMZ.
In the game, as in the game of life, Wayne was coaching his Young Money team with varying degrees of success. TMZ reports Coach Weezy lost it when the ref made some calls in favor of the rival squad, led by St. Louis rapper Loose Cannon Slim.
Lil Wayne allegedly charged at the ref and spit on him, and then the Young Money team ran the poor dude right out of the building.
Police were called to the scene, but no one was arrested.
Proceeds from the alleged assault during a game between the man who famously rapped about “the almighty power of that ch-ch-ch-ch-chopper” and someone named “Loose Cannon” went to Put Down the Pistol, an anti-gun-violence program based in St. Louis.
