Pie in the face, funny.
Spit in the face, assault.
Gobbing at a Clash concert, punk.

Why does all this make me recall Monica Seles in 1993?

Very interesting. The spitting was obviously the last straw in a long line of stress for the man. I wrote an article that shows how this event, LeWeb, and Loic Le Meur are all tired together in this.

Could this be an age thing? As I have noticed that vulgar type behavior appears to be sort of funny for the younger generation.
