Gary Coleman -- Short Money for Bowling Bash

Gary Coleman paid just $300 to make that bowling-alley tussle go away –- almost.

Coleman pled no contest yesterday in Utah to reckless driving and disorderly conduct, and the charges will be dismissed entirely if he doesn't run over anyone else with his truck. He had been accused of nailing a guy with his pickup after a scuffle over cell phone pics.

Feisty Gary told reporters at court, "Celebrities can't go nowhere or do nothing without people getting in their lives."

Utah –- the new H'wood.

Hey, Utah's not THAT bad, and quite a few celebs live here. Van Halen, the dude from the Brady Bunch lives across the street from my parents, not to mention Paris Hilton has property here... I could name more.

Granted, Utah IS Mormonsville, USA :gag:

PS Gary Coleman needs to go away already...

Gary Coleman needs to be happy that anyone even still gives enough of a crap about him to even take his picture.

OK, let's just all agree to make it official .... Gary Coleman isn't newsworthy anymore.

Just for the sake of truth. Gary Coleman was robbed of millions by his guardians, plus he had to deal with kidney disease. The man got robbed of all the money he made, look it up, it is a known fact. His only problem is that he is still recognizable without the means to protect himself from idiots. Compassion is called for here, not ridicule. He worked his ass off as a child, a child with kidney disease, and because the a$$holes who were supposedly looking out for him blew all his money, he has nothing but the face recognition.

Ya think you wouldn't be little po'd? Compassion people. He did not deserve living his life in a fish bowl like this...he didn't blow his money..it was blown for him...again...compassion.
