Chris Matthews throws a bottle on stage

Note: totally not news-related.
I am a big stand-up comedy fan, and when I found this online, I literally laughed out loud.
Mike Birbiglia (not a mean or political comedian) was at a roast when he saw Chris Matthews sitting in the front row. This is from Mike's "Secret Public Journal" where he described what happened:

"Now, I’m a huge fan of Chris Matthews and I watch his show all the time, so I said, “Chris, I love Hardball. I even love that weekend show you do on NBC that nobody watches.”
At this point, something unexpected happened. Chris Matthews started shouting back at me like it was a one on one conversation. He goes, “People do watch that show, I’ll show you the numbers.”
Apparently Chris wanted to play some Hardball. I continued.
I said, “I love Chris’ show. I think I love it almost as much as he does - which is difficult. I haven’t heard someone laugh at their own jokes that hard since George Bush after Katrina. You got to hand it to Chris. He always has something to say, and when he doesn’t have something to say, he says it louder.”
At this point, Chris Matthews threw a bottle at me.
I’d like to clarify that it was a plastic bottle and it was empty, but it was still a bottle and it allows me to say the phrase, “Chris Matthews threw a bottle at me.”
I looked down at the man I watch on the news every day and said, “Chris, guess what? When you throw stuff, I win.”"
