Comedian Guy Branum says he’s going to drag the man he claims hit him on a Delta flight to court … ’cause he’s ready to press charges and sue.<\/p>\n

We got Guy out in Los Angeles and our photog asked him about his recent Delta flight, where Guy claimed a man sitting next to him elbowed him in the ribs<\/a> for being too fat.<\/p>\n

Guy showed us a bruise from the alleged elbow swing and says he’s going to file a police report and a lawsuit … telling the man, “You can’t hit somebody because you think they’re fat.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He says Delta didn’t boot the man from the flight because of his top tier frequent flier status … and he says the airline finally called him to talk about what happened. Delta told us earlier this week they’d be contacting him in regard to his claims.<\/p>\n

Remember … Guy claims Delta basically did nothing, even though other people seated near them told crew they saw the man elbow Guy.<\/p>\n

Guy isn’t just on a crusade against Delta and his flying foe … he says airlines in America need to do more for oversized passengers.<\/p>\n

The comic travels a lot for work and has some Delta status himself … and we asked him if he would still fly the airline after all that’s transpired — and it sounds like he may be looking elsewhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Comedian Guy Branum Can’t Hit Me ‘Cause You Think I’m Fat … I’m Suing Delta Passenger Published September…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":158742,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[49,48,361,75],"class_list":{"0":"post-158741","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-celebrities","11":"tag-entertainment"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=158741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158741\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/158742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=158741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=158741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=158741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
