Fighter’s tattoo prompts suit
Thursday, Oct. 17, 2002 | 12:41 p.m.
The Las Vegas Strip's Mandalay Bay casino resort sued Henderson boxing events promoter Millennium Events Inc. in Clark County District Court, alleging it violated an agreement that forbids fighters from wearing temporary tattoos advertising virtual casinos or other gaming entities.
Millennium, which agreed to promote boxing matches at the Mandalay Bay Events Center on May 18, was accused of refusing to pay liquidated damages after boxer Ben Tackie, in a match with Kostya Tszyu, was allegedly seen wearing a temporary tattoo bearing the name and logo of wallstreet.com -- a virtual sports book and casino.
The defendant could not be reached for comment on the allegations.
