Its A...Bus Fight!

I guess it was bound to happen. There was a mini fight last week and another one this week.Two in a row oh my goodness.

Last week, right when I got on the bus is when the commotion started. There was this punk kid in baggy clothes lugging around his skateboard (yes I said punk kid lol). I guess he accidentally kicked this guy and tempers flared. The guy that was kicked is probably in his 50's and always has on nice respectable outfits and carries a briefcase.

They both stood up and started yelling at each other. There was definitely some pushing going on, but nothing too crazy when suddenly the older guy got up to his full height and yelled "I'm not afraid of you!!!" I said woaaaa. Then a big dude from the back of the bus came up and started breaking them up. The kid got off at the next stop as he was laughing to his friend. Who is at fault?? Punk kid or respectable middle aged briefcase man?? Before you judge, fast forward to this week.

Same respectable looking middle ager with the brief case was sitting across from a drunk dude and his lady friend. Some words or looks or I don't even know were exchanged and both guys got up and started throwing punches and going at each other. I was standing at the front of the bus and the fight was going down right where I was standing. One of them yelled "this is my bus!" and I couldn't help but snicker a little.

When they kept going at each other, the drunk dude's lady friend was the one who was trying to break up the fight, pretty ineffective and hilarious at the same time. Eventually every big dude on the bus got involved to try to break them up because they were not interested in stopping. I got pushed a little bit in all the commotion, but don't worry I didn't go down, lol.

Where was the bus driver in all this? He was confused. He slowed down the bus and was going really slowly then he was on the phone to headquarters to report the incident. The dudes were still being held apart. Finally at the stop the drunk guy got off with his lady friend, he had a big gash down his nose and requested to finish the fight outside off the bus, but unfortunately the briefcase guy didn't follow. As we drove away, we watched the lady friend fussing over his cut and helping him walk because he was pretty drunk, lol.

The bus driver said "I've never seen anything like this happen before." I was thinking...hmmm....except last week of course.

When Mother Hen and I got off the bus, we discussed how there is never a dull moment on the bus. Oh yes, never a dull moment.
