Rapper and social media entrepreneur Spectacular Blue Smith visited 'the happiest place on Earth' on Monday, but his experience didn't quite live up to the hype. According to Newser, a joke he told when entering the park ultimately led to his arrest. The 35-year-old allegedly faked a sneeze while passing by a Disney employee at Animal Kingdom and said the word "coronavirus." Law enforcement reports things spiraled after the employee responded by saying a COVID joke isn't funny. The employee then asked Smith to step out of line. He did not comply. After arguing, the employee allegedly put out his arm to stop Smith from advancing. Law enforcement says Smith then 'turned and punched him on his right side jaw and right temple area.' The employee was subsequently diagnosed with a concussion and Smith was arrested on a charge of misdemeanor battery. An unapologetic Smith wrote in an Instagram story posted Wednesday that 'the more success you have as a Black man, the bigger target you are.'
