    Skateboarding legend Alan "Ollie" Gelfand, inventor of the Ollie, is suing Sega and Activision for using his nickname without his permission.

    Ollie is seeking $20 million. I don't know why he isn't suing over the Tony Hawk game, that's got to be a worth a lot more than Ollie King or Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure money.
