(CNN) -- A Comic-Con attendee stabbed another near the eye with a pen Saturday after they got into an argument over whether one was sitting too close to the other, police said.

The injured man, in his 20s, was taken to a hospital with a minor cut, said San Diego Police Officer David Stafford. The attacker, also in his 20s, was arrested and booked for assault with a deadly weapon, he said.

The incident took place in the San Diego Convention Center while fans were waiting for a panel featuring actor Seth Rogen discussing the science-fiction comedy "Paul."

Those people are really passionate about that kind of stuff.Also there is nowhere else in the nation maybe even the world where one can gather and mingle with people that are interested in that kind of stuff.It doesn't really surprise me that much that there was a stabbing there.

I'm guessing this is a RARE incident.

If this was at a sporting event, you guys would be thinking, this is what happen when testosterone-raged men want to compete and be aggressive so much.

If this was a rap concert, you guys would be thinking, such degrading rap lyrics promote violence.

The guy reportedly wasn't even hospitalized so the "pen stabbing" couldn't have been that bad. It sounds like two geeks just got overwhelmed by the crowded conditions and reverted to their anti-social child like inner self.

Today they said the guy took exception to 'cutsies', the behavior of cutting in line ahead of others to place yourself more favorable in chances of actually getting in where you want.
