Banzai!!!!!

Hello folks,

I am currently on holiday from work, yet went in today.

Why? Well this is our charity week and tonight was my attempt at raising money.

It was a simple idea. Basically myself and Dave (Bighead) were to dress up in inflatable Sumo suits and wrestle on the full houses of the main session book.

Sounds like a barrel of laughs. Plus Dave and I are good friends so it would be fun and not that competitive really. Plus I mean they are inflatable suits so we can't really get hurt or anything.


Well that was the plan........*toilet flushes* Oh dear that idea seems to have gone down the toilet.

Well here are some pictures to get you all going.











Now you look at that first picture and think "My looks like they are going to have good family fun"


But you would be wrong.



It was a best of 5 fights.


Fight one.

The plan was.............well there was no ruddy plan. We decided that we would just go for it and see what happened.

Well, the countdown came and went the next thing I know Dave is running at me like a mad man, really he was drooling and kinda wonky-eyed. I didn't know what the hell to do but thought "I am wearing inflatable armour that'll save me" BIG MISTAKE. He crashed into me and my suit deflated instantly. I tried to fight back, but learned a quick lesson.

You can't fight back much when someone running at you hits you in the neck with their shoulder and sends you crashing to the floor.

Its not a lesson I thought I was going to learn today, but I learned it, and learned it quickly and with difficult breathing.

Round one to Dave.

Fight 2

We were on the stage, now the manager had decided that we had best take down all the railings so that people could see what was happening. I said this was a bad idea as we could fall off and hurt ourselves or maybe even catch a case of death. All in all not a good idea. This wasn't heard and down the railings came.

The second fight was over almost as quickly as the first. Dave once again came flying at me, I thought "he is running fast I will move to the side and he will fall out of the ring declaring me the victor" Sadly Dave isn't blind. He saw this and got me, I was fighting back pretty well. He was trying to push me out of the ring, nothing out of the normal really, we both realised how close I was to where the railing should be and we both kinda stopped. I say kinda cause Dave stopped pushing me across and started pushing me down. I wasn't ready for this.

Round two Dave.

Fight 3

Right I was ready for him now. Git. I was gonna take him down. He beat me by flooring me the first time and pushing me down the second, not this time.

The countdown came and I gave as good as I got. I got pushed ALMOST to the floor but was able to fight my way back up. Only problem was that as soon as I was about to stand up and get my balance back, Dave was there slamming me back down. I think I got ALMOST up about twice before I just plain couldn't stand anymore and Dave shoved me to the floor again.

Round Three Dave

Fight 4

Right this is for pride. I have to win one of these God damn fights, this is just pathetic. I mean what kind of idiot can't even beat someone his own weight and height in an inflatable suit what was that noise? Oh crap we're back at it.

Yeah he came out of now where and was grabbing at me, I actually got a hold of him this time and could hear cheering as I tried my damndest to throw him out of the ring. I got a grip of him and went to chuck him.....................but he just pushed me to the floor. Me still holding his suit. Which ripped.

Round four Dave.


I gave up after that. There is no point flogging a dead horse. And I was knackered.

So Dave won fair and square. But it was fun. In a way.

Well in the only way getting your ass kicked in an inflatable sumo suit can be fun.........yep with alcholic, gambling addicted scumbags cheering you on cause they want to win a hoover AND a chocolate fountain.


We raised over £200 for Breast Cancer.



Quote of the night.


Dave: "Craig, we are doing this for Breasts"


Yes we are,

*Long pause*


Yes we are.

UPDATE

This is the first fight.
