James Bond – Gun Barrel Scene

In 1998, X filed a lawsuit against Y, stating that there were too many similarities between the two.

In the lawsuit, X listed that they both attended UCLA and both wore the #33. He felt that Y was making profits and sponging off the name and number he made famous in the 1970s.

He won a court order that required Y to drop the "X" name off his jersey. In addition, all Dolphins jerseys with the "X" name and #33 were immediately pulled from the shelves and merchandising catalogs.

Y complied and had his name changed to simply 'Abdul'. Y maintains that he chose the #33 as his uniform number not because of X, but because of former Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Dorsett.

After the lawsuit, he changed his name in 2000.
