At a concert last night, Insane Clown Posse rapper Shaggy 2 Dope tried and failed to dropkick Limp Bizkit singer Fred Durst in front of a large audience, then was dragged off by security guards. The Bellevue Intelligencer reports:
The rockers were performing at the BB&T Pavilion in Camden for the Rock Allegiance festival on Saturday and while Durst was singing Faith ... 2 Dope, real name Joseph Utsler, only made light contact and ended up on his back.
There's no word on what beef is at hand between the two men. Various angles of the attack were captured by attendees and posted to social media. Here's a second:

A game of cornhole at the Douglas County Fair in Georgia led to a dispute between players, reports WSB-TV in Atlanta--a dispute that escalated into a fists-flying brawl at the Foxhall Resort.
Alex Cannon was standing so close, he nearly had to duck while filming the chaos.
Cannon told Channel 2 Action News he is always up for a game of cornhole. He just never knew it could be a 'contact sport.'
After the dispute over the score, Cannon said someone threw a beer then someone else threw a punch. He told us the lesson he learned is: "Alcohol and beanbags do not mix."
The police were not called and no-one arrested, according to reports. [via @popehat] Read the rest

Here's another angle!
And another!
