There are some old timers here, just wondering if you guys have any funny stories to share about your coaches. Although my coaches are old school, I am not that old, and they didn't do anything out of the ordinary that would bring the lulz.
A couple stories I heard from my other coach who wrestled for Massillon Perry brings the lulz. If anyone knows Dave Riggs, apparently he is a hardass. One story consisted of making a bus stop 2 miles away from the hosting school of the tournament (in the snow), and making his wrestler run all the way to the school in order to make weight.
Another story involved one of his wrestlers fooling around with an All State football player's (offensive tackle) girlfriend. The football player found out that the wrestler (all of 130 pounds) was messing with his GF. So, he found his way in the wrestling locker room, and punched the kid in the face a couple times. Blood was every where. After the football player left, Riggs comes out of his office and asks wtf happened. The teammates tell him the story, and Riggs looks at the kid and says "shouldn't have messed with his girlfriend."
Um, you ask if anyone has a funny coach story, then you proceed to tell 2 stories, neither of which were funny, and more importantly, neither were yours. FAIL.

I have yet to see a funny one, at least his story was his own.

Wrestler? Haha. You were a wrestler? Also, here's another case where you "don't see how it relates to the theme, (who has thread themes? Gay?) Again, they have their own stories, theirs relate more than yours does.

In fact the funniest part of that story is probably the fact your old ass was sitting in that room watching practice living through high school boys.
Hope this helps.
Your "go to" move is to accuse people of liking young boys when you feel threatened....We get it.
