Now, this is something you don't read everyday:  comedian, Chris Tucker says he almost got into a brawl with LeBron James at church.

At CHURCH!

The confrontation went down after Tucker, who was sitting behind James and Magic Johnson while attending a Los Angeles church service, became annoyed that he couldn't see past the 6' 7" NBA star.

Stop right there.  It's not like they grew in the time between when you sat down and when the service started.  If you couldn't see before, why didn't you move?

Anyway, Tucker tells ESPN, "I'm like, 'Y'all know y'all tall. Why y'all sitting up in the front seat?' He was like, 'They put me up here." And me and LeBron almost got in a fight."

Had it not been for Johnson's intervention, they probably would have.  Magic supposedly said, "Come on, Chris. He just got to L.A., man. Let him live, let him enjoy church like everybody. You ain't got to see the pastor, Chris."

Again...this is at church!

Just goes to show you, some guys should not be allowed to go to church if they can't sit next to their mama to make them behave! ;)
