MA Bar

[LilBunnyRabbit]

Just a thought. Since biker bars, goth bars, punk bars, rock bars, and so on all exist what about a martial arts bar? Dress code gi, do-bok or uniform, unbreakable glasses, mats covering the walls and floor, and so on.

[Melanie]

I think its a brilliant idea myself...accept me as your patron!

Don't forget to add the Makiwara to ask for service and everyone has to say Osu when entering or leaving the bar...

[LilBunnyRabbit]

No no no, they have to say Pil sung, obviously. :P

[Andy Murray]

Ah, but is my glass half empty......or half full?

Andy

[LilBunnyRabbit]

You need to buy the drink first.

[Freeform]

Will you serve hot food?

[Silver_no2]

That's typical of FreeForm! Always thinking with his stomach! You are coming along nicely, my young apprentice!

[waya]

Mine is half empty, leave the bottle lol

Rob

[LilBunnyRabbit]

Yep, hot food, but no sharp cutlery.

[khafra]

Sounds good--You'd probably have a lot of other stylists becoming students of drunken fist during their patronage of the establishment, though.

That's a dumb thing to say!
What if I wanted a Lager??

;-)


Get it? Pil sung, Pils ner?

Oh never mind!
:-P


Rob

[LilBunnyRabbit]

Pil sung, motto of CKD meaning Certain Victory. At least it has a meaning.

Obviously they can say other stuff to, that's just for when they enter the bar.

And I have my doubts that Pils can be classified as non-lethal, let alone a lager.

[Andy Murray]

Who would you get to work the door guys?

[YODA]

A Jedi Master of course :D

Strictly enforced, the dress code will be. Yes.

:p

[Greyghost]

What would you call it......

what about.....


Club.....to the head...

or

Shotokan of lager please...

what about a cocktail list....

a flying back kick....contains 2 parts difficult, 1 part antigravity liquer and 43 parts vodka.... guaranteed to make you spin, jump up fall down and then wonder why everything is still moving.

[STASH]

Ok, what about bouncers? Should they be trained in MA, what styles? Do we even need them?

[Andy Murray]

Some rules are required!

1/ No throwing Shuriken at the Dartboard!

2/ No spinning of Pool Cues!

3/ No Grappling in the Mens Toilets!

4/ All weapons must be checked at the door! (Sorry Mike)

5/ Kicking out the Light Bulbs is not permitted!

6/ No Belts to be worn! (find another way to keep your pants up)

7/ Ninjas who dissapear when it's their turn to buy a round will be barred!

8/ No breaking demonstrations! (tables are plated with steel)

9/ Thai shin kicking off supporting timbers will not be tolerated!

10/ All inter martial disputes to be settled by alcoholic capacity!

[Thomas Vince]

Okay everyone has completely lost it now. I avoid these places for this very reason!
However it sounds sounds like great fun you bums!

I think it should be a private club though no non-martial artists or wannabe's. And then we need a manager a bartender, a bouncer ( I'm all for Mark the new guy because if he didn't want to let you in you'd have drive the car through the doorway to move em), an entertainment manager ( I'm thinking Melanie or K-Girl) but hey who knows some of you might like Cooler's bald head(hehehehe)a Fung Shui consultant, rope swings and an obstacle course and last but not least martial art has beens and old losers. Andy and I shall take that up!

As anyone ever the wathced the bar scene in the movie Gremlins? Well,there you have it that's us!

[Freeform]

* Andy's Rules (As amended by Colin.)

Some rules are required!

1/ No throwing Shuriken at the Dartboard! (Spoilsport, and we were gonna have a picture of you on it as well.)

2/ No spinning of Pool Cues! (Does that mean that I get to bring my Jo for a pool cue?)

3/ No Grappling in the Mens Toilets! (Hey, I'm secure in my masculinity!)

4/ All weapons must be checked at the door! (If you don't have any, the management will be happy to provide some ;) )

5/ Kicking out the Light Bulbs is not permitted! (Hell, if you can get that high off the ground I'm not gonna stop you!)

6/ No Belts to be worn! (find another way to keep your pants up)

7/ Ninjas who dissapear when it's their turn to buy a round will be barred! (If we can find them too kick them out, "he's under the barmat!".)

8/ No breaking demonstrations! (tables are plated with steel, I think they should be actively encouraged then :yeleyes: )

9/ Thai shin kicking off supporting timbers will not be tolerated! (Bloody right it won't!!!!)

10/ All inter martial disputes to be settled by alcoholic capacity! (The Aikido/Wing CHun contingent will always win then, they have Fluffydoc!)



Thanx

[Mark]

Just imagine what the barfights would be like!! :eek: :woo:

[khafra]

Man, I dunno about those rules. I can never resist trying out bo, jo, halberd, or spear moves when holding a pool cue... Maybe that's why I do so badly at pool.

[LilBunnyRabbit]

* Andy's Rules (As amended by Colin and ckdstudent.)

Some rules are required!

1/ No throwing Shuriken at the Dartboard! (Spoilsport, and we were gonna have a picture of you on it as well.) Throwing knives, bo-shuriken, and similar are only to be used on bar staff when service is slow.

2/ No spinning of Pool Cues! (Does that mean that I get to bring my Jo for a pool cue?) Only personally owned bo-style weapons may be spun.

3/ No Grappling in the Mens Toilets! (Hey, I'm secure in my masculinity!) If you want to grapple, go to either the womens or communal.

4/ All weapons must be checked at the door! (If you don't have any, the management will be happy to provide some ) Any guns will be eaten by their owners, all other weapons permitted.

5/ Kicking out the Light Bulbs is not permitted! (Hell, if you can get that high off the ground I'm not gonna stop you!) That reminds me, I'll have to look into cages to protect the lighting.

6/ No Belts to be worn! (find another way to keep your pants up) Unless earned and ability proven to the manager. Anyone not in a uniform will be used for these demonstrations. References from a respected instructor are required to wear black belts or above.

7/ Ninjas who dissapear when it's their turn to buy a round will be barred! (If we can find them too kick them out, "he's under the barmat!".) Everyone stamp on the mat!

8/ No breaking demonstrations! (tables are plated with steel, I think they should be actively encouraged then ) Glasses will be plastic, and unbreakable. Tables will be three inch thick solid steel, as will chairs. All will be welded to the floor.

9/ Thai shin kicking off supporting timbers will not be tolerated! (Bloody right it won't!!!!) Timbers will have razor-blades implanted to encourage this rule.

10/ All inter martial disputes to be settled by alcoholic capacity! (The Aikido/Wing CHun contingent will always win then, they have Fluffydoc!) Apparently you've never seen the Choi contingent on a binge.

11/ All serious fighting must take place in the designated arenas, and will be taped to raise revenue.

12/ Entrance to the bar rescinds any right you have to make any sort of legal claim on the management.

[Andy Murray]

What about 'Fight Pub'.

Ist Rule/ You don't talk about Fight Pub!

[YODA]

LOL! Yeah - Fight Pub gets my vote.

Simple, Direct - very JKD :D

[Andy Murray]

DOH!

Just broke the first rule.

You don't talk about Fight Pub!

[Ghostsuit]

What about this for the logo :D

[pesilat]

ROFL ... imagine, if you will, a bustling Friday night in Fight Pub. There have already been three "discussions" sorted out in the sparring ring in the back room ... and the house doctor only had to attend to one fighter.

Suddenly, a guy (not a pub regular) grabs the bartender (a wizened old man with a twinkle in his eyes) and puts a knife to his throat demanding the money from the till. The guy's 4 buddies fan out behind their boy and pull pipes and knives.

The band stops playing and everything gets very quiet. Then the bartender's lips curl up in a grin. Like a wave, the grin rolls through the rest of the tap room. The knife man is wondering what the bartender is grinning about. His buddies are wondering why the 40 people they're facing are grinning ... there's even a chuckle heard from the back of the room.

The 4 guys suddenly hear a slap, snap, and a groan as the bartender breaks their buddy's wrist and the knife falls to the counter. In short order, the pub is back to its normal routine ... with 5 new heavy bags hanging along the wall.

Neechi once said " There can be no art without intoxication"

Many great painters and musicians have sought synaptic inspiration by abusing various substances.

So rest assured, it's all for arts sake!

Andy :D

[waya]

hmmmmmmm remind me to wear body armour, Kevlar sounds really good right now LOL

"Jose Cuervo, you are a friend of mine" hehe
Or what was it Sammy Hagar said........ "Mas Tequila!!"

Rob

[LilBunnyRabbit]

Forget kevlar, I'm going for full plate steel.

[Thomas Vince]

I like that Andy,
I drink therefore I am. Buddha would have loved that. But there is one thing the buddha was right about "there is no thinker behind the drinker."

WELCOME TO FIGHT PUB! :Angel:

[Andy Murray]

OK, anyone caught 'spiking' Thomas's milk will be barred.

[Thomas Vince]

I WANT THAT MILK IN A DIRTY GLASS! EEEERRRRRGGG!

[Saz]

What sorta drinks will Fight Pub have? I reckon Sidekicks and Moscow Mules (and milk for Thomas). Any other suggestions? :)

OMG!!! This threat is too funny. My tummy hurts from laughing so hard LOL.

MMMM a Fight Pub full of Martial Artist ....... what happenes when they get drunk ( get beer muscles like the red neck at the corner of your local pub), and wanna fight?

As far as drink names ......

Double roundhouse (double shot)
Knife hand (losta hard liquore in that one)
Bone Breaker (a drink so strong that makes you cough and break a rib hehehe)

[Freeform]

Hmmm, I'd think twice about going up to the bar and asking for "3 straight blasts, a barchoke, 2 double armbars and a sidekick please".

Your just asking for trouble.

Thanx

[Thomas Vince]

K-girl,
I like the chocolate ice cream, at least I'd get my milk!

[KarateKid1975]

LOL Freeform. Just make sure the bartender isn't drunk (beer muscles) LOL And wear head gear.

[Andy Murray]

Just thought I'd raise this old thread for Nostalgias sake.

[Adam]

This is creepy Andy, I was just about to do the very same thing when I stumbled over it this morning :D

by the way, I think the bar could also be called "The Arm Bar"

[Knight_Errant]

yeah! and allow me to introduce the arm bar special cocktail: the hard smack in the chops:
1 shot tequila
2 shots vodka
Top up small glass with lemonade

[Jack]

We need a small contigent of American teenage Karateka dressed entirely in white to try and get served drinks, only to say such scathing phrases as "gee whiz" and "aww man" when denied. :D

[Adam]

And we could finally find out what a REAL Tequila Slammer would feel like :D

1. Hey! Only a "small contingent"? There should be more than that. If there's only a few Americans then I'd have to hear all the Brits saying "blokes" and "bloody". :D

2. Just don't open the bar in America. It's not illegal for us to drink anywhere else. ;)

[Kwajman]

Have someone like Samarai John Belushi to cut up sandwiches and stuff with his sword....
