Garth Brooks is waging a bitter legal war against a hospital in his hometown, demanding the
Oklahoma hospital return a $500,000 donation he made because it never named a building after his mother.
It's all over a deal Garth claims he made with
Integris Canadian Valley Regional hospital in Yukon, Oklahoma about four years ago. In his lawsuit, filed in state court in Oklahoma, Garth claims his donation was supposed to go towards a new hospital building that would be named after his mother Colleen -- who died from cancer in 1999.
But the building never got built -- despite a $27 million renovation and expansion project last year -- and Garth wants his money back claiming the hospital breached the donation contract.
The hospital claims it's all a giant misunderstanding and hopes the dispute will reach a "swift and amicable end."
The strangest thing about this photo isn't that
Garth Brooks flipped the coin toss into his own face at a soccer game this weekend -- it's the fact that Garth Brooks was at a soccer game this weekend!!

That expression is the most embarrassing thing to happen to Brooks since
Chris Gaines.
Garth Brooks has friends in low places -- and judging by this one chick's t-shirt, some of 'em are a lot skeezier than others!
Two big guys -- and equally big egos -- met up at the same Sunset Plaza restaurant. All we wanted to know: Between Jason Statham and Stone Cold Steve Austin, who'd win in a fight?
Also: Ric Flair cleaned up his act while one of Garth Brooks' fans dirtied up hers -- by wearing a t-shirt reading "I'm not a gynecologist but I'll take a look." Nothin' but pure class.
The Ivy went country yesterday as someone named
Chris Gaines Garth Brooks shed his cowboy hat and cheesy checked shirt for a more touristy ensemble -- and decided to munch on a $27 salad. This ain't Oklahoma anymore!
He was mobbed by a ton of fans as he walked out. Seems he's a big star.
Little old ladies, soccer moms, even stalkerish leather-jacketed cowboys -- everyone has a chance with Garth Brooks!
Cameras caught Chris Gaines' alter-ego leaving the Capital Records, going out of his way to hug, sign and pose for pictures with every last Brook fanatic waiting by his escape vehicle. Nice.
