I wasn't able to tell from the ESPN video who actually tossed the cup that "started" it.
I just watched it. WTF was up with the cop threatening to pepper spray Artest when he was on the court? You got fans running on the court and throwing stuff, and they're going after Artest when he was doing nothing at that point?
who actually tossed the cup that "started" it.
Reminds me of a party we threw when I was younger. At college we had this thing where you would flick your bottle cap from your beer at the back of one of your buddies heads. Was a silly thing. Was throwing a party with some of the crew and flicked a cap at a buds head and missed. It hit this bull dyke (someones sister) in the back of the head instead. I almost died laughing, bending over holding my sides laughing. I am bent over trying not to tear up because I thought it was so funny. Within 10 seconds all hell broke loose. Guntherette was on the war path. Bloodies 4 guys noses, and keeps going like a banshee from hell. It took 4 BIG guys to restain her long enough to get her to her calm down.
It is a moment in my life I will never forget.
