Poop Larry Johnson: Kansas City hates me so much, I can’t get a fair jury - Page 2

Former Chiefs running back Larry Johnson is being sued in Kansas City by a woman who says he spat on her in a bar. But Johnson says he needs to move the trial out of Kansas City because it would be impossible to find 12 people there who don’t despise him.

Johnson’s lawyer, Jack T. Bangert, told a judge Wednesday that folks in Kansas City hate his client with such a passion that he could never get a trial in front of an impartial jury there.

“If we can’t get a change of venue in this case, it is insurmountable,” Bangert said. “We want to go anywhere but here.”

Bangert showed the judge newspaper articles, web posts and affidavits from two talk-show hosts, all attesting to how much Chiefs fans hate Johnson.

However, the plaintiff’s lawyer says those concerns are overblown, and that Johnson isn’t as famous (or infamous) in Kansas City as he thinks he is.

“We all know people in Kansas City who are not Chiefs fans who have never heard of Larry Johnson,” lawyer Charles Speer said.

The judge will rule later on whether Johnson is really so despised in Kansas City that the case has to be moved elsewhere.

Who was that guy last year who was saying we were a bunch of idiots and LJ would rush for several thousand more yards in his career? Or was that GoChiefs or someone doing a fake account?

Larry Johnson thinks way to highly of himself. Always has. Which is probably why he runs around spitting on women.

I'd show up to jury selection wearing a Priest Holmes jersey.

But then you would just quit trying and still expect to get paid.
