Whats you're best fight ever on the trail?
Have any of you ever gotten out on the trail with a buddy and had a falling out? I was talking to a friend earlier today on the phone. It made me think of a time we fussed. Lordy did we fuss. It was hilarious. We fought hard..... then made up. Laugh about it now everytime we think of it. I'm not talking about a mean spirited fight. It is just funny when friends know each other well enough to go after it hammer and tongs..... then make up later.
I'd say my best fight ever happened in the Smokies. I was highly pi$$ed and stomped off. I cannot stand for a man to boss me around. and buddy lemme tell ya..... he was bossing me big time. That didn't set well. Laugh was on him when I left him standing there yelling "You can't even find your way out of here by yourself!" I thought 'yeah well, you'd better hope I don't. I have the keys and I'm driving!" I did get out fine but cooled off and waited on the dude. We laughed about it later.

The only person I ever fight with doesn't backpack. So there are places all over town where I drive by and remember having a fight here, a fight there, but never on the trail. :)

Maybe that is part of the reason I go hiking.

I've had a few disagreements with fish who were opposed to my idea of eating them. I won most of those.

Third rule of Fight Club, someone yells "Stop!", goes limp, taps out, the fight is over
Fourth rule, only two guys to a fight
Fifth rule, one fight at a time

Seventh rule, fights will go on as long as they have to
And the eighth and final rule, if this is your first night at Fight Club, you have to fight.

Once, I fought a bear on the trail. I had brought BBQ spare ribs for dinner and there was NO way I was giving them up to any bi-ped or quadruple-ped (well, maybe I'd give Pennsy one... on second thought, no!).

So there I was, with the spare ribs, sitting between me and the bear. The bear was nasty and had bad breath, but his jokes were alot better than Artex's. He took a swipe at me, but I ducked and then bobbed and weaved in my best Ali style and delivered a left hook to his old snout. He let out a horrific shout and reeled backwards...

That's about all I remember. I offered him some Wild Turkey and we drank the whole bottle. The next morning he was gone, so I had breakfast alone and then headed down the mountain.
