12/12/2012

If you've ever watched "Pawn Stars," you've seen three generations of Harrisons leaning on their glass display cases while they haggle over money. Today, though, the arguments are about Rick, Corey and Richard "Old Man" Harrison, along with their sleepy-eyed sidekick, Chumlee. Talent agency Venture IAB has filed a lawsuit claiming the cast signed contracts allowing the agency to represent them before "Pawn Stars" became a massive History Channel hit.

Venture is suing History and its rival agent for $5 million in damages, but Rick could probably talk them down to $3.5. [Source]
