Drunken Dizzy Bat Game Gone Awry

Okay, some of you might have already seen this one. It was posted back in October and has become a favorite for many, getting nearly a quarter of a million hits. It's nothing special, a typical drunken dizzy bat game gone awry. What's most impressive about this video is that the guy who was hit didn't drop his beer.

Human Piñata...Thank You Beer

Seriously? What the Hell? I guess everyone has their own idea of fun. If you've followed this blog long enough, you'll know that this isn't the first video I've posted where dudes hit other dudes with wiffleball bats. Okay. So what makes this one special? Valid question. Well for starters, it's more than a well-placed swing to the face. One guy gets hit in the beer gut and another guy gets hit (more like spanked) on the bare ass (crack blurred out...don't worry). Now for the money shot: the guy actually taking a blow to the face. After initial impact, they abuse the technology we enjoy known as slow-motion. They replay the bat to the face sequence about 56 times. Then it's more party antics after that. This moment was brought to you by beer.

Bonus fact: About 9,000 years ago it is believed that somewhere in the Fertile Crescent that someone mixed water with barley and created the first brew or beer. Beer is one of the oldest prepared beverages concocted by humankind. So it's safe to say that people have been doing really stupid stuff like this for thousands of years and there's no reason to believe that it won't happen thousands of years into the future.

And now a Wiffle Public Service Announcement...

Although Wiffleball is seen as a children's toy it does NOT mean that you can haphazardly swing the bat at other people's skulls. This guy had it coming. He is apparently stupid. This was shot at the University of Tennessee by the way. Ah yes, the place where cutting edge research and learning takes place. Oh wait, the stupidity of students isn't limited to beer games. No. Apparently taking a thick plastic bat to the forehead is climbing up the list of pastimes. The guy who was swinging the bat wasn't holding back either. He must have had something against this guy. The bat actually bends a little bit. Those of us with extensive experience with yellow bats can attest to their durability. So a bat bending is not to be taken lightly. This guy should have gotten a CT scan for brain trauma after taking a hit like this. But since he was thinking a bat to the head won't hurt maybe he had already suffered some brain damage prior to this event. There's no way this guy's on the Dean's List.

Wifflebat Fight Club...seriously?

Yes you read right. G4's Attack of the Show has managed to take polluting the sport of wiffleball to a whole new level.

The first rule of Wifflebat Fight Club is that it's okay to televise Wifflebat Fight Club events.
The second rule of Wifflebat Fight Club is that you do not use actual Wiffle Bats (yellow bats).

The third rule of Wifflebat Fight Club is that although the bats we use couldn't possibly hurt we can still be pussies and wear protective head gear.

Why is this happening? I mean they're not even actually using the official Wiffle Ball bat. If you used the real bat that would probably sting quite a bit. It's thicker plastic and the hollow center isn't as big, thus less resistance when it hits the ball...or human flesh. That's why they work so well on pinatas. But these gigantic bats they use render the name of the club useless. Those big red bats are despised in purist Wiffleball counter-culture. They're called everything from "fag bats" to "Captain Caveman bats." Such a mockery of a good movie and a phenomenal book. Somewhere in Portland, Oregon Chuck Palahniuk is vomiting after watching this video. What's sad is that since Attack of the Show has such a following of gamers that this travesty of an activity is already spreading. 

Then there's this video. Stick with this one, it's worth it in the end. It appears that they had a choreographed nerdy Star Wars reenactment in mind but things went horribly wrong when rehearsal turned to improvisation. You'll see what I mean near the end of the video below.
