Arm Wrestling

[Su Jacko]

I have noticed a trend, amongst my friends and work people, for arm wrestling, when we go out for a drink. At some point, somebody will lay down the challenge. I also saw this in Bowness, in the lake District. It was, however, a group of newly qualified teachers, in suits and all, arm wrestling over plastic tables that kept just breaking. They were shouting, 'who's the man' and that...
Thoughts on wrestling and other pub games. Any other strange traditions.
Really only a man's man like Richard Harris or Richard Burton should attempt it..perhaps a cheeky David Niven in his day?

I beat Vinny in an arm wrestle, easy like. But Jamie beats me every time Me and Daz pissed on a sleeping gentleman once too. A case of mistaken identity

I could see how the arm wrestling may escalate into a terrifying series of events ending in, what can only be described, as the fire side scene in DH Lawrences, 'women in love', alan bates and ollie reed in the all-together......

I've done a lot of arm wrestling when I'm drunk. I always lose.
