Veteran U.S comedian, Bill Cosby who has recently been jailed for sexual assault is already reportedly beaten in prison for making a silly joke.

According to Radar Online, the 81-year-old comedian was slapped with a chicken patty by a fellow inmate for telling a joke which was not amusing.

Reportedly, the Fat Albert Movie star had been trying to form a friend circle in prison but many already have a problem with him, hence the attack.

“Mr. Cosby cracked a joke to another inmate by his infirmary, and that inmate was mad enough to take his chicken out of the bun and plunge it at him,” a source told the site, adding, “The way I see it, you have to be very angry to throw your meal in jail because I don’t think you get seconds. Mr. Cosby told us last week that the chicken patty was the best meal he had so far at SCI Phoenix… so that says a lot.”

Cosby was in end September sentenced to three to 10 years in state prison for his conviction on charges of drugging and sexually assaulting former Temple University women’s basketball administrator Andrea Constand at his suburban Philadelphia mansion in 2004.
