Full article:

Thomas Johansson (promoter) : I had dinner with them after the show at The Happy House (July 28, 1977) which was part of the University of Stockholm, during which Sid Vicious decided to stand up … there was sweet little girl and a bunch of guys on the table behind us who had some fresh popcorn, but Sid stood up and spat into the beer of one of the guys. But Sid didn’t notice that the gut had a vest with HA on the back, signifying that he was a Hell’s Angel. So it turned into a huge fight and Sid got beaten up.
