Near Death Experience Redux

[RugbyBuck]

I'm playing my first rugby match Saturday since I woke up in an ambulance in June, as some may recall. The cracked ribs are more or less set and my cognitive functions seem to be ok, so it's time to get back out there. I'll be doing my best Bam Childress imitation (this year's version). I should arrive at the local OSU alum bar just in time for kickoff, but smelling like one of Anthony Schlegel's hogs. If I don't survive, I'll be in the 'Shoe in spirit. Go Bucks.

That's debateable...

OK for me, not in general. :) I sure could use a few more of AKAK's paint chips, though.

Good luck, Rugby -- stay safe (and not in the condom sense)!

Thanks, SC. That reminds me of my best rugby prank story. On second thought, another time, perhaps; taking the 5th Amendment as the statute of limitations may not have yet run.

We need a lawyer to let use know....I'll look for one :)

I'm not even sure what the charge would be. Possibly, malicious wounding, battery, assault for the purpose of hilarity. All I can say is, never be the first to fall asleep on a rugby road trip.

I hope you have good short term and long term disability at work.

Enjoy and drink one for me afterward.

AFLAC paid for the ambulance ride last time. Unfortunately, there are no bugs or Abita at the alum bar, so a Guiness will have to do. Cheers.

For what it's worth, I survived the match and arrived at the bar on the diametric opposite side of town just in time to see JZ's first TD throw to Holmes. Cheers, Bucks. Oh yeah, I ran better than Lydell. At least I can break a tackle or two.

glad to hear you made it out in one piece :)
