Rural Georgia is a strange and scary place. Camouflage is all the rage here and people drive around in monster trucks with gun racks in the back window, dead deer in the truck bed and bumper stickers that say, 'The south will rise again'. Its common to drive down a paved road to have it suddenly turn to gravel. In fact, not too long ago I drove down a random side road only to have it dead end into a gravel road called 'Supper Club Rd'. On one side of the road were a bunch of cemetery grave markers and on the other side was a house with a 43 foot tall confederate flag post out front and an entire living room set on the front porch with the refrigerator in the yard. Creepy. Since there was no other place to turn around I pulled into the driveway and a giant man wearing nothing but overalls and an eye patch stumbled around the side of the house toward my car. I immediately began to hear those creepy banjoes from that old movie 'Deliverance' and a voice saying, "you shuuuur do have a purty mouth". As I made the tires on my little Hyundai kick rocks and peel out, a pack of about 12 rabid looking pit bulls come from behind the man and ran at my car. If my Hyundai had nitrous I would have used it that day. So scary.

Well, that's not all that's scary about rural Georgia. Apparently, there's a bunch of 12 year olds that can kick our asses out here too. They started their own version of Fight Club in the middle school bathroom, where they bang it out for thirty straight seconds and then return to class as though nothing has happened. Pretty raw, check it out below:

Georgia ain't nothing like that, lame story. We used to grab on to a towel with one hand and throw haymakers with the other during football period during the off seasons.

Fuck yea in agreement. How fucking sheltered are some of these people? But these kids are raw with the whole phone camera shit-see how you match up with region. I'm glad to see kids doing something other than get fat and play video games.

P.S. Notice how they didn't let any of the kids voice there opnion, trying to make this "a new bad scary thing to be scared of, your kids." Fucking TV news.

haha that is shit! they get to chose face or body! That never happened in my school, it was face all day and it happened in a caged 5-a-side football pitch round the back of the school. the fight wouldn't stop till some one was ko'ed or taking the most one sided beating ever.

I remember when I was twelve...I was studying Grammar (unlike Robbie) and writing high school level English papers. Reading books and in my free time, playing basketball, football, and running track. If anything the parents should be pissed that this is going on at the school. If the kids want to fight they need to get themselves a damn job and pay for some BJJ or Muay Thai classes. School is for academics go learn to be something boys. After school beat everything you learned back out if you want. There are too many institutions for these kids to learn to fight without messing up their academics. Look at some of the fighters we all love, for Instance Forrest Griffin...man has his college degree. If Forrest broke his leg off and couldn't fight anymore he'd have something to fall back on. You all sound like the neanderthals MMA opposers say we, as fans, are. Cheering on 12 year olds fighting in bathrooms between periods? Are you fu**ing with me? Come on people act like adults. If any of you found out your son was fighting in the bathrooms at school and encouraged it you're a shite parent. If you want your son to be a bad ass raw mother then you should forgo the aforementioned job and pay for him to take lessons.

whoa...hold up yo. Hey, kids are going to fight. YES they need to learn in school and there are plenty of other instutions for roughhousing... Except when there's not. I was a smarty pants like you, had a great family probably like you too. There are citys with schools who posses some dumb-ass teachers and NO Martial Arts around unless you want the colloquial "McDojo." I grew up in one, a mostly hick town with a surprising mix of races. Until I finally almost killed a guy bigger than me in a fight he started. I got picked on constantly in Junior through High School. Columbine anyone?

I appreciate these kids having some rules and some respect for each other while they scrap, and I also appreciate their ingenuity. If I was a parent, my child wouldn't have to participate in that sort of activity because I'd "scrap" i.e "train" with my kid at an early age, and I would hope I could afford a decent fucking school. If I found out what was going on? I'd say they same thing I am now-watch me-wait, you can't. Oh well.

lol at the "watch me-wait, you can't. Oh well." I agree with you on several points. A some places just suck. The reason I put more time into my studies in school is cause I grew up in one of the most dangerous parts of one of the most dangerous cities in the country (US if you are from elsewhere), Memphis, TN. The only thing I had was a Tae Kwan Do class at the local community center if I wanted to learn to protect myself. There were some places to take classes but if my family could have afforded those classes I wouldn't have lived in that neighborhood. Sure I got in my share of fights, its unavoidable as an adolescent male. It's almost a right of passage in my opinion. What I was disagreeing with is the mindlessness behind some of the comments encouraging kids to actively try to hurt one another. e.g. " the fight wouldn't stop till some one was ko'ed or taking the most one sided beating ever." I have no problem with boys fighting its what boys have, do, and always will do. It just shines a bad light on the sport and MMA fans cheering it on definitely doesn't make us look any better. If proving MMA is human cock fighting is the goal, what better ammunition than a bunch of MMA fans talking about how they "would be pissed if [their] son wasn't the one whooping ass!"? That's all i'm trying to get across.

Ok, Word. This story IS really good ammo, just beacuse this shit goes on doesn't mean that it should be youtube'd and/or even worse: the evening news...Oh wait too late. Good light on MMA and Martial Arts in general would help its propagation to these shitty parts of town. Guess the kids' ingenuity got the better of me, I forget that I didn't grow up with this techphones hotness these kids posses.

Memphis, huh? Fuck.
