My buddy and I stopped at an Applebee's just inside the Alabama border for lunch. A guy at the bar volunteered a story. He wore an Alabama hat. He announced to the bartender and anyone else within earshot, which unfortunately included me and my buddy, how he got into a fight yesterday.
He explained how there was this man at a gas station who was bullying his wife. He said to the bully, hey you ought to pick on somebody your own size, so the bully punched this guy at the bar and knocked his tooth out, and he showed the bartender the spot where his tooth used to be.
Then the man at the bar described matter 0f factly how he then tasered the bully. "Yeah, I tasered him," he said. The police came, he said, but everything was caught on video because there were cameras running at the gas station. The bully was charged, but the man in the Alabama hat was not. "Look," he said, and he showed us where his tooth had been, but I didn't look because he was so anxious to tell everyone what a hero he was which didn't make him a hero to me at all. In fact I'm guessing he wanted the bully to hit him, that he just waits for that kind of thing. I looked everywhere but at this guy. "Yeah," he said again, "I tasered him."
