its hardly an indicator

doesnt take much effort to start a fight by throwing a bottle/glass at someone.

Most of the people who wear Tap Out style clothing couldn’t fight their way out of a wet paper bag, its hardly an indicator

Maybe we should put a bounty on rats tails. They are filthy, disgusting things that lead to accurate stereotyping.

I wouldnt mind a ban on rat tails. (i know a number of clubs in pert who have banned rat-tails/MMA fighting clothing/tapout clothing) however it makes it easier for bouncers & the police to identify trouble makers. Smart troublemakers (if there are some?) would remove distinguishing features like these.

Two out of three rats tails ain’t bad

So…the media release announcing release of the video doesn’t actually have a link to the video the release is all about, and it’s being released (maybe) almost 3 months after the fact?

Not exactly confidence inspiring.

No good ever came from a Uni Lodge.

Three gutless, spineless cowards. They must have a different definition of ‘tough’ than I do.

No good ever came from a rats tail.
