- In 1982, a fan sued the Los Angeles Raiders over $18. Seriously. I don't think I need to add anything else.

I’m looking forward to JG-37 and all those crazy curling stories.
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian will remind everyone you made a video about a Jaguars fan who got imprisoned over three cents.
Not to mention, the video about the (then) Phoenix Cardinals fan who successfully got his ticket refunded because he didn't like it that they allowed beer to be sold in one portion of Sun Devil Stadium. I'm guessing he got more than $18. Then again, the Cardinals at that time weren't the Raiders....they absolutely sucked.
@@anthonyjkenn6319 Too bad they didn’t sell Cognac, but you just earned one with that!
In 1982 I was serving on a Federal Grand Jury the whole year. I used to see Al Davis quite often sitting outside his court room, sometimes just by himself or conferring with his lawyers.
If he wanted his money back and now, he should have called JG Wentworth!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Al Davis is the one who's supposed to sue people
I wouldn't be surprised if James McKnight won his case BECAUSE the Raiders didn't send someone to represent them in court. If you go to traffic court and the cop doesn't show up, the case gets dismissed.
That isn’t always the case. Sometimes the Judge will reschedule the case if the officer has a good excuse for not being there. Like a more important trial that the officer had to be at.
It was a default judgment, so that would be the explanation.
This lawsuit is the epitome of the old expression: People will do things for the pettiest of reasons and sometimes no reason at all.
To be honest, losing $20 in 1982 would be a bigger deal than 2023 nowadays, but that's what inflation will do to you.
Half a day’s pay
1982.... the season that keeps on giving!! Back in 2005 I was selected for jury duty for a lawsuit. The lawsuit was brought by doctors suing Blue Cross for not paying what the doctors believed was "market value" of their services. The one bill that was the center of this lawsuit..... $23, yep, $23. A week long trial over a $23 bill
A week? The judge should've taken one look and tossed it immediately.
@@dicloniusgames didnt bother me I got the whole week off work with pay!!
@@leogetz3570 That's always a good thing if your employer's willing to pay you while on jury duty.
'i had it coming'. leo getz things done.
@@dicloniusgames yes, at that time my job paid me without taking my vacation time!!!!
In the story, you mentioned that the $18 was based on the national interest rate at the time. Based on that, his ticket value was $150. That's not where I'm going here.
Since that was the annual rate, true justice would have been the judge recalculating the value based on the length of the strike. Since the strike lasted for 57 days, the highest judgment he should have been awarded was....
$2.82
Babe wake up! The JG triple header is starting.
A lawsuit for 18 Dollars? Today that would make a hilarious Zoom call if posted on CZcams.
I remember visiting a hospital billing window and finding out that my mom owed ONE DOLLAR on a bill. I told the clerk that I'd go into my wallet and pay it off. The clerk told me it would cost the hospital MORE than that to process that payment.
Cannot wait to see what stories you find for JG7. Baseball's one of my favorite sports if not my favorite.
I love your new sound!! You sound great!!
What I learned from this video: Marcus Allen was amazing!
Honestly if I started the day with even _$1_ , let alone $20, in my wallet and it disappeared, you better believe I’d sue my wallet!
This reminds me of that South Park episode where Stan and Kenny tried to get their $18 back from Mel Gibson because they didn't like "The Passion of the Christ."
What you are witnessing is real, the participants are NOT actors. They are the actual people who have either filed suit or have been served a summons to appear in a California Municipal Court.
Both parties have agreed to dismiss their court cases and have their disputes settled here, in our forum, THE PEOPLE'S COURT!
I love this guy! I suspect he did it for the story. Now he has a great story to tell. He beat the raiders in court. Fantastic!
What a loser!-Donald John Trump
Thinking about those days, I miss hearing, "Branch left, Barnwell right, Plunkett back to pass", always exciting football.
Yesss 3 video
This sounds like an episode plot for a sitcom.
I already knew the '82 season was hella weird, but this is ridiculous. Suing someone for $18?! Jesus, take the wheel!
It's not about the money. It's about sending a message.
Wasn't 1982 also the year "The People's Court" debuted? He could have taken the case to Judge Wapner (God bless his soul) and potentially made some money just by appearing there (however I highly doubt the Raiders would've played along for a myriad of reasons)
"The People's Court" debuted in 1981.
If you're in a dispute and you can't work things out don't take the law in your own hands, YOU TAKE THEM TO COURT!-Doug Llewellyn
Time value of money isn't insignificant, especially if you consider it at the macro level. First to clarify, the 12% rate is the annual rate,but you don't have to wait a whole year. It's calculated proportionally at set intervals. Let's say 1% a month. (Although it's even more complex than that due to compunding interest). Him losing out on his tickets due to the strike doesn't mean he is out the potential interest from the date of the game until the date if the refund, it would be calculated from the time he purchased the ticket until the refund. Let's say 6 months just as an example. Which means he had $300 worth of tickets.
Let's go further. Let's say the stadium holds 50,000 seats and the average ticket goes for $100. That's $5million per game. Let's say the team missed 3 games due to the strike. That's $15 million. Let's assume all tickets for the sake if simplicity were bought 6 months on average before the refund. In the meantime the Raiders put it into a bank. They would have earned $900,000 on interest alone. Yes I know they lost out on way more money not having the games, but they did get that just by holding the money until after the strike was resolved.
So now an unhappy fan( whether being from the strike, or the move, or a combination of the two) realized all of this. And now wants to get some retribution from AL Davis. He went a way he was fully entitled to. Maybe he was hoping a raider lawyer would show up to cost them more, maybe he was hoping more fans would follow suit. Or maybe he just wanted to get the satisfaction of knowing the raiders had to pay out a tiny bit of the money they earned by holding onto fans money for games that didn't happen. But he was legally entitled to it and deserved to win. Also in most jurisdictions, if the plaintiff does win, the defendant also has to pay for the court costs and sometimes for additional expenses pertaining to the case.
The mistake is thinking the case is baseless because the amount of money he is asking for is so small. Keep in mind the total amount of money the Raiders are holding from ALL of their fans while they aren't delivering the product the fan's paid for and aren't offering refunds. It doesn't matter that it would be "difficult" for the Raiders to offer refunds. They are the ones who sold the tickets and then together with the other owners and players caused the strike to begin with. Don't sell a product you can't deliver if you don't want difficulties. I like seeing a little guy play the same game a big business would do in a heartbeat and win at it.
James McKnight and Al Davis in 1982 could have potentially dropped their cases and have Judge Wapner hear the arguments on The People’s Court, then only in its second season.
Actually James McKnight would have been awarded his $18 plus his court cost of $48 for a total of $66.
I know this because I have taken someone to small claims court.
And if I was James McKnight I would have sued for what I actually paid for the season tickets plus the $18 interest
For $18
Ah, when the Raiders were Raiders and not the LV Patriots 👍🏼🖤🏆🏆🏆☠️🏴☠️
Somethings are too crazy not to be real. Here is one of them.
How much could I get from the Raiders if I sued them for 20 years of emotional distress
LETS GOOOOO
As an example 5-2 =3. DUDE REALLY do you think we are illiterate 😐
And I bet that 18$ went to buy some smokes or liquor
So no XFL Thursday?
That about tracks for Raiders fans.
This video and you logic are goofy as hell. I agree with this guy that the team not giving back the money on request and deciding to hold it to use to carry them through their bad decisions. Another example of people defending billionaires
And what’s funny is after he won his 18$ he probably wasted it on something else
So did he really win?
And by now he’s probably dead anyway
