    KG hits a fan!

    Ohhhhh..

    http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/basket...t_Ejected.html

    Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Garnett was ejected in the third quarter against Memphis on Sunday for tossing the ball into the stands in frustration after being called for an offensive foul. The nine-time All-Star then lightly tossed the ball into the stands under the basket, accidentally hitting a male fan.

    He probably won't even be suspended.

    Because he didn't actually go and try to punch someone out.

    Even funnier is the fan's reaction, LOL. Acting like someone threw a medicine bowl at him. He'll probably end up suing for millions.

    He should have KG sign the ball for him.

    I caught the part of the fan walking out with some of the personel. I was wondering what all that was about.

    That fan looked pissed, atleast KG apologized.

    That fan should win an Oscar, . It was definately one of the funniest moments in Sports I've seen in a while.

    KG tosses a basketball into the crowd. Man falls down. Daughter cries hysterically. Man gets carried out of the stands on a wheelchair stretcher.

    PTI ripped the fan a new one. Most ridiculed fan since Bartman.

    The fan, a middle-aged man, reacted as if he'd been, well, kicked in the groin by Dennis Rodman. He sat there stunned for a long time. He didn't seem to acknowledge Garnett, who came over immediately to apologize.

    After a few minutes, the fan's pain seemed to get worse. Never mind that Garnett didn't really throw the ball that hard, and that it appeared to strike the guy in the side of the face. For some reason, the fan suddenly couldn't walk under his own power. He had to be wheeled off in a gurney.

    Some T'wolves fans even began to boo as the fan was being led off the court. One fan, who was seated behind the man who was hit, said the ball didn't appear to have much velocity on it. "It wasn't real hard," Kevin Zenk told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

    Asked about the man's reaction, Zenk said, "Overreacted.... You know, I kind of figured the Oscars were next week, but I don't know if the nominations are all in. He played it up."
