Presumably those who were there passed on the story to others and it became well-known. I can quote what Jesus said at the Last Supper, and I wasn't there either.
Revelation 2:14
Nevertheless, I have a few things against you: There are some among you who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to entice the Israelites to sin so that they ate food sacrificed to idols and committed sexual immorality.
1 Corinth 8:7-8
But not everyone possesses this knowledge. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat sacrificial food they think of it as having been sacrificed to a god, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled. But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.

"Paul is bad" is just the excuse that modern people are using to get out of believing in the gospel. There is no reason why I should try to argue with you on that fake issue, and I won't respond to future suggestions of that kind.
