The post about people that do jiu jitsu to impress UFC loving friends reminded me of a humorous bjj related story. Im a sophmore in highschool and Ive been bjj for almost a year. There are 4 kids total that I know of that train in any bjj at our highschool and we are all good friends now. So I run into this guy in the halls and hes wearing a tapout shirt so I strike up a conversation with him and he tells me hes been training for close to 3 years. Then I ask him where he trains he responded "Oh its this brand new place u prlly havent heard of it". At this point im very suspecious because he just told me he was training for 3 years. I kept questioning him and he feeds me line after line of bullshit. So I decided to test him I asked him a trick question "Does your lapel ever dig into ur ankle when ur rolling in Gi". He responds with Yea it did for a while but after the first year I stopped noticing. Now when he walks down the hall and sees either me or my 3 friends that train he looks away ashamed. He still does tell kids he could kick their ass and that he won a gold medal in the junior olympics for jiu jitsu (which is funny cuz there isnt one to my knowledge I also belive there isnt a lapel that could dig into ur ankle). I thought Id share that humourous story has anyone else have a story like that.
