His only real option was to prolong the confrontation until the ushers came to break it up. Then lodge a complaint about her “assaulting” him in front of his family to get her tossed. The security cams would have backed him up.
Totally agree. I would’ve continued to keep her at arms reach the second she would get close. I would gently or forcefully move her back to arms reach again if she persisted. And then if she started swinging or scratching or biting, I’d probably put a heel straight to her chest with full force.
Then, when the husband shows up it straight to jiu-jitsu. No swinging or punching.
Hopefully by then security is shown the hell up
