    From Wikipedia:

    On February 17, 2015, Afroman was midway through his performance at a live music venue in Biloxi, Mississippi, when a woman walked on stage. While dancing and holding a drink, she approached Afroman from behind. Afroman punched her in the face and was eventually escorted offstage by security. He was taken into custody, charged with assault, and released on bond shortly thereafter.

    There were reportedly 12 to 15 security guards on duty to manage a crowd in excess of 500 people. According to Afroman's representative, he had punched the woman as an involuntary reaction to the invasion of his personal space. Afroman also stated that he mistook her for another audience member who had been heckling him throughout the performance. He publicly apologized and sought assistance with anger management.

      ok yeah it sucks to punch anyone in the face if they weren't violent themselves, i'd say seeking assistance with anger management is an appropriate step. but also if you're climbing onto stage with a musician you should probably expect something equivalent to being punched in the face to happen to you, leave the performer alone lmao
