The only big scars I ever gotten was from jumping a snowmobile and it landed on top of my leg. The metal studs got a hold of my leg and it got spun into the underneath of the sled. I was laying on my back with my leg stuck and all twisted from my snow pants being all caught in the metal studs. Emergency room visit for sure.

Right hand, from the knuckle on my pinky to my wrist, broken 5th metacarpal, broken at a show when I hit a pole while having a lil to much fn for a band.

Right elbow, about 4 or 5 inches, broken elbow, screw and wire still in it

right knee, inch or two, was walking on a parking log at a soccer field and fell off onto a front liscense plate. Not sure how many stitches.

Left knee small scar from recess basketball, 5 or so stitches

Chin, basketball injury playing with a 320 lb. D-Lineman, rough split, required about 12 stitches, still shows if you pay attention to the area.

Just right and above of my right eye, car accident when I was a child, 5 stitches, barely noticeable.

I've got random scars all over my hands from football, and while playing Lacrosse I must say, Turf Burn is a BITCH!

My chin. Can't remember how many stitches.

Summer before 6th grade. Racing my sister on our bikes. Hit a rock, flew over the handle bars. Face first on the asphalt.
Jaw was stuck shut for about a week. Liquid diet. Wasn't fun.

Glass bottle to the hand, lots of scaring.

Bicycle crash to the knee, bit of scaring.

Melted plastic to the hand, little bit of scaring.

Staph infection to the arm, some scaring.

Knife to the wrist (not in the way you're thinking)- minimal scaring.

Football injuries...

First year of varsity, got destroyed in camp and kept breaking my chin open, small scar there.
Freshman year, two guys went to stop me from making a tackle, they hit each other head on but somehow a piece of my forearm ended up between their facemasks, and they took a chunk.

9 stitches just above my right eyebrow. I was sledding and went head-first into a metal fence pole when I was 5. Sometimes that scar still hurts.

8 stitches on the right side of my chin. Ice hockey on my friend's pond when I was 9. Caught a stick to the face.

6 stitches on the left side of my chin. Diving for a loose ball my freshman year of basketball. Someone landed on my head.

11 stitches on the right side of my chin, an eighth-inch away from the first 8 spot. Basketball again.
