Lenny Dykstra Explodes Over Rolls

Posted Jun 9th 2009 2:30AM by TMZ Staff

Baseball legend Lenny Dykstra fired off an angry email to a TMZ staffer -- calling her "a f***ing drama queen" -- all because we had the audacity to ask if his $400,000 car was repossessed.

Lenny Dykstra

So it all started Monday afternoon, when we got some pics of Lenny's Rolls-Royce Phantom getting towed from his work in Camarillo, California. Given the recent reports detailing Dykstra's financial woes, we considered the possibility that it was getting repossessed. So we reached out to Lenny to find out what was going on. His eloquent response:

Let you know what? I had the pick-up arranged with Rolls Royce - what do you think we are all doing there at the same time for?

Do you not have anything better to do - you f***ing drama queen! Get a life!

I worked out the pick-up with a VIP at Rolls Royce - I told them where I would be, the time I would be there ..... and now you want to know why? BECAUSE I WASN'T DRIVING TWO HOURS TO BEVERLY HILLS, PERIOD!

Do you not have anything better to do, how did you get the big assignment? You f***ing drama queen! Get a life!

Respectfully,

Lenny K. Dykstra

31. TMZ I know you guys like to rub it in to get the guys attention. Maybe you should have headlined. Dyktra explodes when asked question, goes into convulsions and needs medical attention, condition to be updated.ha ha

32. This guy sounds (and looks) unintelligent, and I suspect the Rolls was repossessed. I can't figure out why he wouldn't drive for two hours in a Rolls Royce "PERIOD".

33. Good for him! By the way, TMZ, I think you meant $400,000, not $400.

34. Hey isn't that repo guy "Froy" from the show "Repo"? Sure looks like him. As for #4's comment about how TMZ should get a real job and stop poking around in other's lives. So you're doing what here? Poking around or what? Why are you taking the time from your life to read and post comments? Guess Dykstra was just pissed 'cause the repo guy asked for his signature but only because he needed it and it was not because he wanted it.

37. So it was an arranged 'give back', which is nothing more than a less dramatic repo. Got it Lenny.

38. Kudos to Mr. Dykstra!

TMZ you guys need to get real jobs and stop hounding these people. I honestly have no issues with TMZ reporting on celebreties but it's the way you guys go about it. Nothing is off limits to you.. death & children are not even off limits.. It's digusting..

39. Very appropriate response. I wish he would have used stronger language. Totally distasteful for someone (a perfect stranger) to call and inquire about other's business and expect to be treated respectfully:(

40. HELLO!!!! That's a snatch truck......if Rolls Royce was taking it they would have used a roll back. ( a rollback is less of a chance to damage the $400,000 car. Glad to see that the common person isn't the only one getting their car repoed!

43. lenny dykstra is a POS.he wants to live the good life but according to family and friends he dont like to pay his bills.
either hes pissed that you guys found out about his car being repoed,or he had a case of roid rage.

44. check back next week to see if he is driving the same vehichle...Lenny could have said 'no comment' he didn't have to get all over the person. yeah, it may be a litlte slow, but he's still a quasi-celebrity.

45. I love Operation Repo on true tv, the repo guy in the photograph looks like Lou from the show. You should have used that angle at least that show is current, this due who is having his car repo'd no clue who he is. If it was RR taking the car for repairs or whate ver they would be using a flat bed not a tow bar.
