When I was in college, a few of us started a martial arts club. the college was into the idea and funded it. One day, a guy stopped by in fatigues - he was a marine. He was bragging about how he could do this and that and how great of a fighter he was. He asked if anyone wanted to fight him and the guys nominated me. I took him down, and while were were grappling, he scratched and bit me. Didn't hurt, but it was annoying. I warned him not to do it any more. The next time he did it, I arm barred him.

He tapped out, then got up and walked to the mirror. He started blowing kisses to himself, pulled out his brush, brushed his hair and left. We never saw him again.

That is an odd one, for sure.

Geez I tell ya what, I must have been in the wrong schools. I have been training for nearly 20 years and haven't seen anuthing half as interesting as some of these.

Because my karate club is above a pub, we get a few drunks coming upstairs and heckling.

We get people walking in a lot at TKD too, cos the church hall is on the main road in the town and when we have the fire doors open in the summer people can see right in (good advertising though).

i was head of security at a martial arts tournament one sunday, and we had three teens come up to the doors and start watching thru the doors. the girls on that door taking entry fees called me over, because these kids looked pretty dodgy. when i got over there they were asking me questions, and then started crapping on about how they could kick everyones b u t t. one of them then asked if he could have a fight with someone, so i told him to wait there. i found the biggest, scariest looking person (good friend of mine) and started walking back over to the doors, these kids ran off real quick. very funny to see.

I run a relatively big group and over the years a goodly amount of funny things have happened.

We have a guy in our dojo that our ranks me...its my school, but he used to be my instructor and he still lives in town and thus comes to work out with us. He is a really stern and old school type of instructor who views karate as kind of a mini-military. He pretty much is a "take no crap" kinda guy.

Anyhow...we have this girl start up who is eight years old. She is exceptionally hyper, ADD, and scatter brained to boot. She was out in the parking lot of our dojo at the same time the elder black belt was getting his stuff together to come inside. She sees him, and I guess in a hurry to show him what she learned from the last workout, sprints across the parking lot right at him and kicks him in the groin.

While this would have been funny if it had happened to any of my black belts, the fact that it happened to him made it all the more funny. He came in, looking sour and walked up to me and asked the girl's name. I told him her name and he simply said "that girl will never, and I mean never, make it to black belt." He declined to even tell me what happened for about 20 minutes.

Needless to say, when he did, I laughed.
