American rapper and record executive, Rick Ross has been sued for not making his
show wheelchair accessible.
A disabled man, Darris Straughter sued the singer over his failure to make his popular
Car & Bike Show to accommodate disabled attendees.
Straighter alleged that despite purchasing a ticket and arranging for travel and lodging,
he was unable to attend the event at Ross’ 235-acre estate dubbed ‘The Promised
Land’ in Fayetteville, Georgia, while, the plaintiff, who has been disabled since suffering
a traumatic spinal cord injury in 2018, contacted the event organizers two weeks in
advance to inform them of his needs.
Adding to his grievances, Straughter claims that the show organizers had promised
refunds to anyone who couldn’t get into the event, but says he never received any
follow up or compensation.
