Rumble in the Jungle Melbourne style.
Seeing how I've been talking about my fight night in glasglow. I thought I'd finish off the bit of serious trouble that I only experienced in my time travelling. Its kinda funny, I've been through alot of the worlds biggest cities, subways, alley ways at the wrong times of the day or night. Yet, Not once did I encounter any trouble. But, I guess I pushed my luck in old melbourne town.
There was this cheap bar, called the dallas bar, off king street. Near the heart of the city. Fairly lively place, king street is full of bars and strip clubs. The dallas bar rep is that of a bit of a fight bar. It attracts that kind of crowd. Well, a group of us had been drinking at the bug bar and we'd all signed a pack with the devil to do a neighbours night out at st kilda. (neighbours is a aussie tv show, popular with the poms) The bug bar shut at 11pm-12am. So, naturally the group of travellers headed over the closest and cheapest bar, you got it, the dallas bar.
Anyway, getting right too it. Our group of 3 girls and 4 guys, grabbed a few cheap drinks and started to play some pool, while the other half, danced like smegs. We were playing a game of doubles. Myself and a english girl by the name of beth, were up against irish colin and another english girl. All was good, everyone was enjoying themself and the bar was pretty empty. Then in walked 2 pacific island guys and 2 girls, that dress like a combo of " in da hood" and "brit spears". The girls, not the guys.. for the love of god. You got that? Ok, anyway, getting back to it.... I noticed the whole room atmosphere changed, when these dudes walked in and it was a vibe of trouble.
I went to exchanged glances with a few of the lads, but they were all to busy either drinking, dancing. It seems, what built up to the problem, while 4 of us were playing our game of pool, one of the pacific island guys started to steal drinks right under the nose of one of the guys with us and I think he saw this as a sign, we didn't want trouble and that he could get away with what he wanted.
As beth was looking to play a shot down my end of the pool table, this pacific island guy walked up and tried to tell her he wanted a game. She said sure mate, after you put back our 1 dollar you pinch off the table and place some of ya coins there. You can be next game after that. The guy grunted at her and I walked up asking whats up? He didnt look me in the eyes, he answered my question but kept avoiding eye contact. The guy was heavily pissed.
5 mins went by and again, he moved up to the table and tried to take the pool stick out of beths hands, I walked up and said whats going on? Brave, little beth told him to piss right off. He wanted a game. I said "mate, we are playing a game right now.. do you understand?" "you'll going to have to wait." "This is our game, ok?"... he kept avoiding eye contact and at the moment, one of the mad drunken irish lads with our group, was doing some mad dance shit on the dance floor, so I became distracted and look in his direction. What I didn't see, was the pacific island guy, turning his back to me, and then he did a double look over his shoulder in my direction and then cracked me with his elbow in my nose.
My head rocked back, I was shocked and stunned.. Time basicly slows down when this shit is happening.. I felt like an entire age had passed, He look back to see me still standing and he had a bit of a shock look on his face.. He didn't know I came from thick headed mount isa/irish/lithuian/scotish stock. My nose hurt like a mother &#$%&@, I put my hand to my nose, blood was pissing out of it, beth was smacking him with her hands and he was trying to do something to her as well. I Just grabbed him and picked him up right off the floor and drove him into the nearest walled and slammed him tooo the ground. The 2-3 bouncers and bar staff all of course jumped on me. But I was filled with the notion of breaking this guys nose.. as he may of broken mine!
As I pushed off the bouncers and bar staff, I had the guy pinned to the floor. Everytime I tried to throw a punch, a bouncer or bar staff guy, would grabbed my arm in half swing. Basicly all my group, just saw me pick up the guy and drive him to the wall then throw him too the ground. So, they all jump on me trying to get me to stop fighting.. Which, I heard but I didnt want to stop, because this bastard had tried to king hit me and take me out without ever looking me in the eyes and shaping up.
Dramatic pause, as I go to bed.. A swing!.. to be continued....
