Wasn’t there but a mate was Best Man for his best friend at this Bucks Party. After much drinking there was a race around the block where the Groom to be, and a few others, took a short cut through a couple of backyards. Apparently as they jumped one of the fences several of them plummeted into a pool under construction and tragically the Groom was fatally impaled on the exposed re-bar and died there. This was something that changed everything for every one whom knew him and all his mates. After this terrible event anyone whom had Bucks Party’s after this event were decidedly more low key and uneventful. My mate still gets really upset when it’s ever mentioned. Context. This tragedy happened in the very early 90’s when construction sites weren’t so regulated hence the ‘no safety cap’ on the rebar. Thankfully that has changed. The guys were returning from a local pub crawl and had decided it would be a fun way to end the night with a foot race home, knowing these blokes, any spewing would’ve been an instant disqualification. Also anyone whom took the time to read the post, and it seems quite a few did, I’m hoping that we’re all reminded just how the promise and potential of a life can change in an instant. One seemingly harmless action or ill considered thought can/will affect you and others in ways we could never imagine. So thank you for reading, thank you for the comments and please stay safe.very-edge-of-space reply
Worked at a few bars as an axe throwing teacher. You see all types but we get A LOT of bachelor/bachelorette parties who swing through for the novelty. The highlights: Bride found out a bridesmaid had slept with the groom in highschool. Had to confiscate the axes. Two bridesmaids made out and the bride’s mother flipped the hell out. Had to confiscate the axes. Watched a best man take a sip from his axe and threw his beer. The beer did not stick to the target and he was sad. Water was provided. Probably the one I felt the worst for was a groom who did not drink putting up with his drunk friends. I paid for his sodas for the night. One groom got left behind after a disagreement about a strip club. He wouldn’t go due to being a decent f*****g human. The staff came together with a few regulars and we threw him a party and bar hopped together after we closed. One of the most fun nights I’ve had in my life and he invited me to cookouts until I moved away. One groom taught me how to body roll in exchange for me teaching him to throw axes. I did not ask him if he could body roll or how to do it. He just taught me completely unsolicited. Comes in surprisingly useful at parties. We had special axes at one bar that grooms/brides got to throw. Massive fire axe. Cool as hell. One groom wouldn’t throw it. He just wouldn’t. He just wanted to hold it. It was kinda funny and we put the blade cover on it and just let him use it like a tote. We couldn’t get it back from him until he passed out. I thought it was funny, but it mortified his friends. One bridesmaid almost hit the bride throwing when she wasn’t supposed to. I caught the axe at the cost of almost losing a finger. Major badass points and a massive tip, but I did have to superglue my hand shut and go home early. Pretty sure the blood traumatized the bridesmaid. She definitely went into shock and my coworker had to calm her down.Hey Pandas Do You Have An Odd Or Unexplainable Fascination For Specific Things?

Not work, but school. I was doing the same thing as always, when my class went silent. I took off my headphones and looked around. My teacher turned to a classmate, lets call her L. Our teacher asks us,” did that sound like a gunshot?” L nodded. I could feel my heart get faster. Our teacher sprinted out, and L says,”Okay, everyone stay quiet. A few people made jokes, which is a common stress reaction. I am hyperventilating at this point. Minutes pass. Our teacher doesn’t come back. Now we are all worried, but an alarm didn’t go off, and that kept me from fully freaking out. When she came back, she told us she had asked her husband, and he said someone slammed a locker twice. L said she knew it wasn’t in the building, but maybe it was outside because it wasn’t too loud. I agreed. No real danger, but something I will never forget. Guess where I live?
