He says he appeared at a meet and greet when a couple became rowdy. He was then followed by the couple to a club where the rowdy behavior continued. The gentleman spit on Game, then Game spit back.

Album", the MC is hard at work on a new mixtape and a new album, to be titled "F.I.V.E. (Fear Is Victory's Evolution)".
