quite a lot of utter bulls
t being spouted in this thread gentlemen.i find it almost laughable that there are so many people who "..stood up to the big bad bully.....one solid bop on the nose and he crumpled;never to bother me again"
load of ste that, this isn't tom browns school days and bullies aren't usually disuaded with a "tickler in the bread basket".in the real world that's how situations escalate into altogether more serious stuff.
fighting in the street is a mugs game.either you or your dancing partner stand a very real risk of serious injury.all fights in nightclubs /pubs etc. i have had the misfortune to witness are always pissed up aholes who magically grow a pair when pissed.the standard of fighting is frankly laughable but it only takes a split second to lose your balance and tt your head on something like a bar stool.
i'd wager that 99 out of every 100 tits who fight in the street wouldn't consider the possibility of doing it properly with gloves,headguards,a ring and some rules.which really is the only place fighting belongs

Obviously they go on, but it's hardly downtown Mogadishu.Schnellmann said:

So basically you got drunk, caused and provoked a situation which caused the bouncers to do their job, then you tried to get them convicted of a crime.
dheads!
My friend wasn't drunk, he didn't attack the bouncers.....and beating him up for just being witty was not part of the bouncer's job (as it is against the law). Which was why the bouncer was prosecuted. d
heads!Are you perhaps a doorman yourself?
You admit the response was no surprise. I wonder why that was???

It was no surprise when the group of bouncers dragged my friend outside and gave him a few slaps. ..........
After it was all over friend reported them to the police. Ended up in court. Tiny got off on a technicality because they couldn't prove that he had thrown the punch that caused the damage.

My Mrs family is from Reading and nights out there can be pretty eye opening, I understand you defending where you live though.
That's where I got my scar... In what used to be the Ramarda bar beside the swanky hotel of the same name on the Oxford Road. (Bet it's not the Ramarda now though) During the Snooker tournament of 88. There was that, and the underground night club just opposite the train station, what a dive. Tuscaneer - I don't get what is so unbelievable about the stories being posted. I know a number of people who are easily capable of taking on multiple opponents and winning.
People and their lives are all vastly different. Nothing that has been posted so far is outwith the realms of possibility, not even close.
As for the schoolyard bully stories, I have a similar tale to tell. I was being picked on, and one day I'd had enough. I ran up behind the boy, got him in a headlock, flung him onto the deck and basically told him to cut it out.
He did, so it worked.
So it's not really that outlandish a concept.

And you worked that out all on your own did you?? holes who magically grow a pair when pissed.the standard of fighting is frankly laughable but it only takes a split second to lose your balance and tt your head on something like a bar stool.
Or is there some deep dark story of that awful night you killed a man, with one crazy, fateful punch, but you never speak of it...
Agreed.
Haven't found one single story in this thread, that I haven't personally see happening at one point.
But on the topic of "the group of friends that were standing with you when you were attacked, and all the sudden you are alone" is the reason why I had to change to a different school, far far away, at one point.
Today, I still have no idea were they manage to disappear into, on the school empty car park, and then reappear after all the st ended, in a matter of seconds... but I manage to leave the car park, unscuffed apart for 2 burn marks from the 2 fags they manage to extinguish in my face, but very very light marks. (one of them was directed at my right eye, but wearing glasses was too complicated for that idiot to get his head around on why it failed...)
3 days of being escorted out by the police from the school, because they couldn't control the group outside who was waiting for me, and new school here we go...

Fighting tips
1 Never fight any one bigger than you.
2 All ways pick your victims.
3 Never have a fight on your own, always have back up.
4 Use a weapon if possible (Bottle cosh knife etc).
5 Try to hit them from behind, or when there not looking.
6 Make sure they are much drunker that you are.
7 If you think you have taken on to much back away and run off.
8 If you cant escape, tell them you have just had open heart surgery and if they hit you again , the stitches could break open and they will be facing a murder charge.(or you could start crying)
The last fight I had was with a little bloke down the pub (He won but I had him worried, He though he had killed me)

I was beaten up in the city bus station when I was twelve. An older boy came over to me and asked "what are you looking at?", I was unable to answer to his satisfaction so he punched me in the face. I tried to get away from him but the door behind me was one-way only and I was on the wrong side so he carried on punching me. It was rush-hour, the bus station was full of adults on their way home from work and none of them did a ffkingg thing to help me.
When I was sixteen a friend and I were at the beach and we were mugged and attacked by four blokes who were burgling beach huts. We were both kicked to the face, head and body dozens of times and my friend was stabbed in the scalp several times with a screwdriver. He lost a lot of blood, by the time we made it the 400 yards to his house the back of his shirt was soaked and it was well into his jeans. I looked like I'd been hit by a bus and had two black eyes.
I've never been in a proper fight and nor would I want to be. I don't tend to enjoy the company of people to whom violence comes easily.

I've only ever been in one fight in my life, and it was so ridiculous it barely even deserves to be called as such. It was over 30 years ago, I was at university, we were stood having a pint at the bar in a pub. We were telling jokes and laughing, and some drunken gorilla decided I was laughing at him and decided to take a massive roundhouse swing at me.
I was completely terrified, so much so that I flinched and I think my knees buckled. Result was that Gorilla's fist missed my face and smacked into the pillar I was stood next to, breaking his hand. So off he went squealing into the night whilst everyone else thought I had moved deliberately and congratulated me on my coolness. I was hardly going to disabuse them of the notion, now was I?
