The fallout from Chris Brown's throwdown with Drake's entourage continues: Now Tony Parker is suing the New York City nightclub where it happened for a cool $20 million. The NBA star says the club, WiP, should have known that allowing Brown and Drake—who've both been involved with Rihanna—in at the same time was a terrible idea. Thus, the lawsuit claims, the club owners are responsible for the injuries he suffered in the fight.
Those injuries include a "corneal laceration of the left eye," the lawsuit claims, and Parker's lawyer notes that eye injuries "certainly don't improve your outside shot." The lawyer also, amusingly, says of Rihanna: "She’s been known, like Helen of Troy, to cause trouble." The brawl started after Drake sent the following classy note to Brown's table, sources tell the New York Post: "I am f***ing the love of your life." Neither Brown nor Drake are named in the suit. TMZ has photos of Parker at the club moments before the fight.
