On November 19, 2004, during an NBA game in Auburn Hills, Michigan, Ron Artest (now Metta World Peace) of the Indiana Pacers charged into the stands to confront a fan after a drink was thrown at him. The chaotic brawl, known as the “Malice at the Palace,” involved players and spectators, leading to suspensions, fines, and a lasting stain on NBA history. | Historyinmemes

Before World Peace was his last name, Ron Artest had to ask his Pacers teammates if they thought they’d get in trouble for Malice at the Palace 🤣 One year removed from being on the team, Al Harrington shares his side of the infamous story — which starts with picking up his mom’s phone call while sitting in a movie theater watching Nicolas Cage in “National Treasure” 🍿 #maliceatthepalace #ronartest #pacers #pistons #nba | Run It Back FDTV
