You Know It Had To Be A Brotha!Leroy Greer appeared on NBC's 'The Today Show' this morning where he defended his lawsuit against a florist after their employee faxed a receipt to his wife.
The problem was this Texan sent the flowers and a love note to his girlfriend. Busted!
The lawsuit, filed this week in Houston, asks 1-800-flowers.com to pay for Leroy Greer's mental anguish and the increased amount he now expects to pay in his divorce case. Greer's lawyer, Kennitra Foote (a sistah') is asking the florist for $1 million, saying the once-amicable divorce could cost as much as an additional $300,000.
In April, Greer sent his girlfriend flowers, a stuffed animal and a card that read: "Just wanted to say that I love you and you mean the world to me! Leroy." The company promised Greer that it would send nothing to his home, according to the lawsuit.
But 1-800-Flowers.com later sent a coupon and a thank-you card to Greer's home. His estranged wife saw the card, called the company and asked for a receipt, according to the lawsuit.

The florist faxed the receipt to his wife, and it showed Greer spent $100 and detailed the love message on the card along with the address where the flowers were sent.
But the sistah' didn't stop there... nooooo. Included in a lawsuit is a copy of the receipt, along with a handwritten note on the bottom of the page written by Greer's wife.
She faxed the receipt with her note to her husband at work. The note reads: "Be a man! If you got caught red handed then don't still lie."
Greer said the florist should not have sent his wife information about the love letter. "The thank-you note was fine," he said. "It was sending all that information to my wife that's the problem."
While leaving his wife, Leroy probably used breakup lines that you yourself have heard before like, "Baby this isn't working out. No baby, it's nothing you have done. Really, the best thing for us to do, before I hurt you anymore, is to break-up. There is no one to blame but me. It's not you baby, it's me." No Leroy... IT'S HER. And now that amicable divorce is going to get ugly and it is going to cost you.
