Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer gave a talk to University students in Budapest on Monday, and a heckler in the audience pelted him with eggs. Or at least he tried to. The egg tosser, throwing like a little girl, completely missed his target. Ballmer initially had a stunned look on his face when he peeked up and rose from behind the lectern that had provided cover when he ducked, but then tried to make light of the situation....
Unlike his boss, Chairman Bill Gates, who was hit in the face with a cream pie a decade ago, Ballmer managed to dodge the eggs Monday.
Ballmer was delivering a speech entitled "You can change the world" to a group of business and technology students at Budapest's Corvinus University when the incident occurred, according to Microsoft spokesman Lou Gellos.
A young man in glasses stood up, pointed at Ballmer and loudly demanded that Microsoft return money it had stolen from the Hungarian people. Then he calmly threw three eggs at Ballmer.
