Does anyone have any experience related to extreme sports that can be played in bars? So far, a small but dedicated band of idiots have come up with the following-1.Extreme bar free diving,2.Extreme bar jousting, 3.Extreme bar doorman goading, 4.Extreme bar swearing and finally 5.Extreme bar urinating......contributors and new additions to this lunatic fringe are always welcome.Note*We are an equal opportunities fraternity.

Extreme bar sports in Cambodia: hashish, ketamine, amphetamines, vodka till dawn. Oh, and tequila.

Also, I heard that a soldier shot a B-40 rocket into Sharkey's bar aonce, and took out the large screen sports TV... but that was before my time. Very Happy

Snorting whiskey and drinking coke is good when you're almost out of money....

All of which lead to the extreme bar sport of patron-chucking.

Over the summer I participated in bar jousting. What is your version? the one I played involved holding a three legged bar stool in front of the family jewels. Then charching at the opposition. You have to be really plastered while playing it as the pain factor is extreme. My friend only lasted one round as he had to run off to the toilets to puke. extreme or what.

Played in pairs it's a corking game of attrition.Basically one stands still with a straight arm,holding it firm .The other then has to run at the fist and nose- butt it while at full tilt.The partners then swap until one chickens out.The loser buys the other the most expensive drink at the bar.By the way Damo,where's Timber?Haven't heard from him in ages.

Do they still have the dwarf toss? Or is that not extreme enough, for you that is?

Another bar sport comes to mind. Two of my colleagues in Cambodia were best mates, they had been thru a lot together, gunbattles, prison, etc etc (no joke) --but their mateship was getting rather frayed. Anyway, one went home for a bit. When he returned, a few eeks before he was to depart for good with his wife and kids, he sat in a bar and startd chucking cognac glasses over his shoulder which smashed inside the premises. He moved on to the bar where I and his colleague were drinking, and before you know it they were locked in combat. That cleared the decks, sending the tourists scattering, just like the OK Corral. Then the older one picked up a very large potted plant, I don't know how, and threw it at the younger guy who had started the fight. It shatterd on the ground into a million bits. The bar manager called the police, who wrestled the chap to the ground and carted him off in their cop car. The funny thing was, the policeman knew the guy who started it, as they had had some business dealings, wink wink.
Meanwhile, I was screaming my head off to the astounded onlookers__"they're really good friends!!" Of course, I had had a few by that point...

I guess you could call their bar sport "Tossing Plants and Glasses"...[/list]

biffen, I remember you playing some sort of bar darts, where you chucked a beer mat at the bar and whichever bottle it hit- you had to do a double. BTW Timber got fleeced and lost all his money. He had to get money from Bangkok boy and now he is back in old bighty

A dog fight. A battle among friends to see who can pull the ugliest bird.
