AceShowbiz - Will Ferrell caused a ruckus at New Orleans Pelicans vs. Los Angeles Lakers game Wednesday, January 21. The actor made incoherent speech before throwing a basketball in an attempted half-court shot which went awry and hit a cheerleader in the face.
Ferrell got escorted out of the arena by security guards. The incident happened at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans during halftime. It was a stunt for his new movie "Daddy's Home" and was caught on cameras by a number of reporters and fans who later uploaded the footage on the internet.

In the movie, Ferrell plays a mild-mannered radio executive who strives to become the best stepdad ever to his wife's two children. Complications ensue when their freewheeling, freeloading real father (Mark Wahlberg) arrives, forcing stepdad to compete for the affection of the kids.
