Jesus Walks. Cage Fighters Brawl.

The age-old question: Can Fresno pull off a simple autograph-signing without making national news?

The answer: No.

Grammy winner-turned-Fresno retail pitchman Kanye West had to cancel an appearance at the new FTK store in Fresno over the weekend after a fight broke out, forcing security to disperse a crowd of 1,000. The story got picked up by AP, MTV, the New York Post, the BBC etc. etc.

The Bee's report says that the brawl erupted after a pushy man began mouthing off to a security guard. According to witnesses, "several guards began 'talking trash' to the man, who said he was a cage fighter."

The man was not identified, but we only know one aspiring cage fighter. Draw your own conclusions.
