Exactly, he attacked a random dude, because he was angry somebody smacked him in his dumbest face with a drink. Honestly, my initial feelings about the situation was the man made a mistake, I'm not gonna ride Artest too hard. It was wrong, he should be punished, not gonna hate him for this". Now, I think he is a piece of shit. He has no idea how anything was instigated. He doesn't even know the dude that threw it initiated the bet. How does he even know this bet was real? Either way, yo punked out and let the dude that did it walk away clean and he attacked some scrawny, tiny, child-like boy that did nothing.
