Effect of sports and culture on fights.

[delta1]

Living in Montana, many people wear cowboy boots as a part of regular attire, ...I've never seen anybody do a kick in a fight yet, and I hang out and go dancing weekly at the local cowboy bar. The primary sport in these parts is hunting. So far, I haven't seen anybody whip out a 30.06 and shoot anybody.

 

And I thought you Montanans were a wild and wooly bunch! I grew up mostly in New Mexico, and let me tell you that those boots were lethal! Same with large belt buckles. And the bars were mostly rated by the number of shootings in an average year. Good sport on a Friday night was shearing Beatnicks, later hippies. And football games were dull if no one got carried off the field, especially when they fought- I mean played- teams from Texas.

Naw..we Montanans are pretty laid back sort of folk. Our idea of fun is watching tourists buying cheap bear spray and walking sticks with little bells on it, and thinking they are going to be safe from grizzly bear while walking in the woods.

 

We have a saying..."Do you know the differance between black bear, and grizzly bear "scat" (poop)? Yeah, grizz scat has tiny bells in it and smells like pepper."

Now THAT is what I'd call a cultural trait evident in a fight!

 

And, you aren't going to sucker me in with all this peace and flowers crap! I used to run around with some Montanans, and they never failed to get me into more trouble than I really wanted to be in, even then! Have a good ...
