Rich Nice, said although Kid Rock threw the only blows that landed – a backhand slap and a punch – Tommy Lee was the instigator.
"It looked like Tommy Lee initiated it because Kid Rock was ignoring him," said Nice, who was two tables away. "And Tommy Lee kind of antagonized him. And then when Tommy Lee stood up, it looked a little weird, like 'Yo, what?"'
"When Tommy stands up is when Kid hit him the first time with a backhand," Nice continued.
"And then Tommy Lee looked like he was trying to get at him to aggressively retaliate and then Kid Rock hits Tommy Lee again – bong. And then security grabs Tommy Lee in a headlock and pulls him off."
