Ever had a non alcohol-related skirmish with a random in public?

Few weeks ago some scumbag decided it was a good idea to offer me out when I had five mates with me and was noticeably larger than him... once we got into the scuffling, chest bumping, 'COME ON COME ON' phase he decided to alert me to the fact he had a broken hand, while I had both his hands in my hands...

It was just never going to end well, the guy was smallish, seemed drunk, had a broken hand and a bumfluff beard. I presume he got the broken hand by having previously bitten off more than he could chew. I was (mostly) sober so I didn't belt him, despite really desperately wanting to.

I dragged him around by his head for a few minutes (it took a while for him to maneuver himself to such a bad position) and we left it, then they broke a bottle and followed us so we called plod.

I generally let the 'what you lookin' at' stuff go, but that particular day I'd had a bad one and wasn't in the mood so I purposely stood my ground (don't get me wrong, if he was a big ****er I'd have bolted!).

I'm not big, I'm not hard, and I'm not gobby, and it's really beyond me how someone who's so plainly rubbish at fighting would start a fight with six guys when he's with one equally mincy mate. I presume waving a broken bottle usually grants him a 'win'.

The whole thing was fairly pathetic and the police that turned up said he was known to them for this sort of crap.

I just don't really understand it. I wouldn't understand it if he was a hard case, but he's clearly a pussy and he STILL wanders around starting fights (and losing) with strangers.

What's the appeal?
 
He didn't seem very bright, to be fair.

He seemed a bit perplexed when he asked me 'why are you talking to me like I'm a ****?' and I said 'Becuse you're a ****!'

It just didn't seem to add up to him, and it seemed so obvious to me
 
Got randomly jumped by 2 chavs on New Years eve a couple of years back - I had a carrier bag of beers in each hand and earbuds in, walking to a party. Saw them walking down the street on the same side, apeing just like angry chimpanzees, and thought I should cross the street, but it was only 9pm and I was literally passing a police station.

As they pass one of them jumps me from the side, wrapping one arm around my neck in a headlock and punching the side and back of my head with the other. His punches didn't have much effect on my skull, and the shock of an out-of-the-blue attack had me thinking they must be going for the beer, and my irraitional thought was "mustn't let them have that!".

So then the chav starts trying to bring my head down and his knee up to my jaw. Luckily I just kept my head up and had him hanging off the ground with his knee bouncing up to my neck level. Must have looked pretty funny to onlookers. Perhaps that's why they didn't help. :( I ended up walking into the street with the little **** hanging off me while his mate tried to get involved. A car stopped, the passengers got out and the chavs ran off. No harm done bar losing a cheap pair of headphones luckily. Feral scum, could have lost my facial features and testicles.

But you saved the beer, right?
 
I wear hooded tops from TK Max and I like to be in fights with people that think they are better than me.
What are you planning on doing about this situation?

Last time I got into a fight was about 4 weeks ago when I was in a club for somebody's 18th. Some thug I recoginsed from the local area thought it would be fun to start pushing us all about on the dance floor.
Things pretty quickly escalated, little did he realise that there was about 20 of us (4 or 5 of us were there with the girl who's 18th is was, the rest were just club-goers) when we all got outside, general outside-a-club-sober-vs-drunk-fight; He spat at me, I hit him back, somebody hit him to the floor, somebody else kicked him in the stomach, then he ran home. Silly little boy.
I wish I could regret doing it, but he was a drunk yob, and we hadn't started drinking yet.
I simply can't take people when they are yobbing off at me like that.
Edit: I don't think I mentioned that he was with a few people too, otherwise it would just be a bit unfair and immature.

In my opinion, fairness is not a concept you need to apply to how you treat those who are violently feral by their own choice. He ran home, so I think you were gentler with him than he deserved.
 
Few days ago i was in the car with a few friends on the way to McDonald's at lunch time. We only had 40 mins until our lessons started so we took a shortcut up an old road. There was a large tunnel where the motorway passed overhead. When we drove through there my m8 saw 2 people walking down the side.. so he decided to toot a little tune. beep.. beep.....beep beep beep.....beep beep beep beep.... anyways we got to McDonald's which by then was just up the road, and we went through the drive through. When we got to the first window, a man walked towards the car and started shouting and swearing...something like this... ''was that you tooting at us? do you know who the **** i am? il ******* cut you up mate'' shouting and abusing like hell. Another m8 (who was in the back with me) replied with ''jog on mate''. He turned to look at him, and realized there was actually 4 of us in the car. he turned away with his hard face on and walked away.

Nothing major...but funny to look back on.
 
Quite a few but I've never really lived in a nice area so you know :p

Also been having quite a few run-ins lately with the "cool" guys who always just sit in their cars near nightclubs all of whom never drink but just shout random abuse at people. Don't help that I got to walk past half the nightclubs in Sunderland to get to my nightbus.
