Very good defensive skills. Some people naturally know what makes a good weapon. Even if the bottle was empty, it would have an effect of a baton.
I’m Irish. We love a good fight. :-) I used to have a terrible temper but over the years I have mellowed. I don’t worry much anymore as Mr. GG2 is a formidable character.
My BIL used to carry a 16 oz Pepsi Cola bottle on the floor of his car. He told me that once 3 guys jumped him and he grabbed the bottle attacked the biggest guy with it, beat him to a pulp and when he turned around the other two were gone.
I have found all of the fight stories on this thread highly entertaining. Guys rock! :-)
