Do Not Use T.O. to Promote a Party
Unless of course, you have arranged a deal with him ahead of time. See, all it takes to have T.O. at your party is paying for his first class airfare and $20k for an appearance fee — according to Hashmarks. One thing you don’t want to do, use him to promote a party when in fact you haven’t arranged a deal with him. Otherwise he’ll sue your ass.
Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens has filed a $600,000 lawsuit against a New York nightclub for using his name and likeness without permission.
Friends tipped him off that he was supposed to be hosting parties at a club called Avalon, a place he claims to be unfamiliar with.
“I’m not trying to knock what these promoters are doing,” Owens told The Dallas Morning News on Monday. “But there’s a way to do it.”
Mosley threw a great line in there, that $100,000 is for compensatory damages, and $500,000 is for the emotional distress caused by not being invited to his own party. Classic. I’ll tell you this much, I think I can test the waters here. Why not? Think it would ever get back to T.O.? I’m doubtful. I think it’s worth a shot.
