Remember the Eva Longoria poster an opposing fan held up to distract Tony Parker in a recent San Antonio Spurs playoff game?
Or the Jessica Simpson masks fans utilized to rattle Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo during a key NFL contest last winter?
Well, get ready for a new iteration of this funny phenomenon.
With the NBA Finals starting tonight in Beantown, Boston Celtics fans are looking for any possible edge against the hated, visiting Los Angeles Lakers.
So they’re making cutouts of Vanessa Curry - alleged mistress of Kobe Bryant.
Kobe Bryant has denied that the affair with Vanessa Curry, an ex-Laker Girl, took place. He quickly fired off a legal letter to the website that spread the rumor.
The site in question, TheDirty.com, replied that given Kobe Bryant’s past indiscretions, a court isn’t exactly likely to find the story libelous. It’s also going to call a lot more attention to the supposed affair than it’s already getting.
In any case, tune in tonight to see Boston fans holding up Vanessa Curry pics to try to get in Kobe’s head. Will their tactic work?
Eh. Given that this guy played half a season while standing trial for raping a girl, we’re guessing this is pretty small-time for Bryant.
