A concertgoer who attended Drake and Future’s Summer Sixteen Tour in 2016 claims a beer bottle struck her during his set causing serious brain injury, so she’s seeking unspecified damages, The Blast reports.
The plaintiff, 24-year-old Amanda Giovacco, attended the sold-out show at Madison Square Garden on August 8, 2016 and claims the crowd got “rowdy” when she “was violently struck by a beer bottle,” allegedly causing brain damage.
Giovacco’s traumatic brain injury has apparently prevented her from attending medical school and she now suffers from seizures.
As a result, Giovacco reportedly filed suit against the Grammy Award-winning artist, Live Nation, Madison Square Garden and an employee named Joseph Picco for negligence, “failing to properly make sure people weren’t overserved liquor, and failing to put the drinks into plastic cups instead of bottles.”
Furthermore, Giovacco claims nothing was done to prevent “aggressive and/or violent behavior at the concert” since “they knew [Drake] has history of violence at his concerts.”
Her lawyer Joseph Napoli says “Madison Square Garden, the promoter and Drake should have prevented bottles from coming in or circulating within the building and being thrown at a concert.”

So Drake is responsible for how MSG serves drinks and also responsible for the behavior of thousands of people at a show? Nice attempt at a cash grab.
Yet she knowingly went to a show that has a history of violence and did no research on how the alcohol was served since she was interested? Sounds like she was off from the start.
Drake Is Guilty Any Fool With Eyes Can See That Joo is Guilty
Do they really serve beer in bottles at that venue? Most places are cans or plastic cups.
Personal responsibility is a hell of a thing. Rare as fuck
Personal responsibility in The Culture??? That’s a thing??? Who heard of such ridiculousness …. your statement can be made across the board
Oh if she’s suing Drake for that then her brain is not so damaged. But I can make her brain dead for good if she really claims to be damaged.
The sad part is she will probably win. That’s just how it is.
People these days will do anything to get paid. After all this time, it still remains true…Mo Money, Mo Problems…
I dont think she got hit in the head… These sounds like symptoms from listening to his music.
“they knew [Drake] has history of violence at his concerts.” hahahahaha it really does get rowdy when Drake goes hard on “Kiki do you love me”
Its the stupid shit heads that go to the concerts mostly teeny punks or drunk adults who cant hold liquor. Always gotta be the ratchet ones
