| Racquetball... no longer a 'friendly' game |


So last night this random guy imed me about playing some racquetball sometime. He heard I was interested in it through facebook. So we decided to play last night around 8 or so. I get there and come to find that he is this massive 6'2 guy with beastly massive muscles and all.. you get the picture. So we start to play and he has this incredible serve. It was so fast that one of the times it bounced twice before i could even see where it went. I mean this was amazing. So he beat me the first game like 15-11 or something like that. I think he let up near the end of it so I could get some self-confidence back in my game.

The second game comes around - I take the lead by a few points. In the middle of one of the points, I am following through on one of my swings (very hard swing) and smash this guy right in the face. I mean square in the chin with my racquet going full-speed. I am like oh ....crap.... and I am very apologetic about it - asking him if he wants to take a break, get some water, etc. He goes nuts. He got very pissed off about it (not very cool, man). So I start to serve the ball again and he makes this threat to me, "yea, well if it's bruised ... blah blah blah..." and I was like ... what? give me a break. The dude threatened me because of a racquetball accident..? What the heck man. He is in some frat and he said something about the guys takin care of me or some crap like that. How immature is that?1 I thought it was very ridiculous. So I played two more games and got out of there as soon as I could.

1. well, he is a business major. enough said.
