So at the racquetball court.........

A pair of 30 somethings, one of whom was a muscled up Hot Shot, were playing a pair of oldsters, 66 and 70.

Hot Shot takes a ball in the back of the head from the 70 yo, who apologies profusely for a genuine accident.

A few minutes later a careening ball hits Hot Shot again. He gets in the 70 yo face, yelling 'I told you not to do that again' and gives a 2 handed chest shove, putting 70 yo on his back on the floor.

66 yo steps up and says 'hey, take it easy, it was an accident, and can't you see he's an old man?'

By this time the whole gym is all eyes.

Hot Shot shouts 'what are you going to do about it old man?' while throwing a punch catching him hard in the front of his shoulder and knocking him back into the wall.

As Hot Shot is leaving for the hospital on a stretcher with a broken jaw, broken nose and cracked sternum, he realizes not all old men are to be bullied. Some are in great shape from playing racquet ball, a lifetime of building swimming pools and they may have martial arts skills. Or even MMA experience.

Cool thing was the gym staff called an ambulance, but not the police. And they took statements from all the onlookers, just in case Hot Shot thinks he has a hot shot lawyer to call.

 

Nice. I like a story with a happy ending.
Hot Shot eating through a straw for the foreseeable future.

 

Hopefully Hot Shot learned his lesson!
