"judge agreed to dismiss Game's battery charges -- for allegedly
punching a cousin at a family funeral -- as long as he does 36
anger-management meetings by February 2009. He could've faced clink
time if convicted." - TMZ
If you remember this stems from the bench clearing brawl at his cousin's funeral where The Game punched his cousin Robert "Kirky" Kirkwood in the face.
“He said, ‘man, you ain’t
my mother fuckin’ family,’ and pushed me. And my reaction was to do
what I do, and do what anybody would do in that situation. And the
whole family jumped in and it was just like a royal rumble. I had no
idea that they was gonna go to the police and do all that, like come on
man. You premeditated this whole thing and it was all money-motivated.” - The Game
Haven't we all been there?
