I was sitting a few tables away, two men got into an argument, and one smashed the other in the face with a beer bottle, he was gushing blood.

Same. In a corner of the restaurant but took pickup/ems forever to respond. Restaurant did not empty. I bet most of the restaurant didn’t know something was happening.

Confirmed! Was there. Did not know this happened until walking out the door.

Lol yep really.

u/AffectionateBig1898 6h ago

I mean, crazy, but does that really warrant 10 police vehicles?

No, it doesn’t. How else are cops going to milk your tax dollars by fraudenlently booking unnecessary overtime hours?

Not exactly sure what it was, and I don't condone it. But if it was after that fumble in the last 2 min., I understand.

u/Quick_Cat_1543 5h ago

Was there! Two longhorn fans and nothing to do with Florida. Waiter told us it was regarding an altercation about one table was able to seat more than the other and got in the other table’s business. The guy hit the other guy with a beer bottle and was taken out by stretcher.

u/steakomode 4h ago

I was there too and three tables away. From what I saw and gathered, what you said lines up. Older dude pushed a guy and he reacted by smacking him in the face while he had a glass in his hand. The gash was pretty massive on the jaw line and the guys hand was gushing with blood.

u/XxSpectr 6h ago

u/Disastrous_Wind_7005 6h ago

Probably pissed off because Sark can’t call a decent short yardage play and Arch holds the ball FOREVER!

2

u/Fragrant-Section-640 4h ago

Bc Arch has no O-line! Trust me, I’m from a “high-ranked” Big 12 team. It’s true, tho

1

u/Disastrous_Wind_7005 4h ago

BS. No Oline!!!! This is the very same Oline that blew Ohio State off the ball in the second quarter. Sark either doensn't know how to call a play from 3/2 or 4/1 etc OR our ENTIRE offensive team is WAY WAY WAY overrated and we committed the most $$$ in the entire SEC on a group that can't find it's own ass in the dark!

•

u/Fragrant-Section-640 3h ago

I think Muschamp got cocky and made bad calls under pressure.
Sure the o-line did well against Ohio State but that’s bc they were UNFAIRLY ranked no. 1! They had some balls to prove. They have NOT proven to have said balls. Period

•

u/Disastrous_Wind_7005 2h ago

Dude, the defense was on the field for WAY WAY more time than they would ever be expected to be on the field for if they had a half way non retarted offense. The D fell apart at time today sure, but you CANT expect the D to bail you out EVERY game! These last two losses are SOLEY on the offense and SARK's inability to draw up a halfway decent short yardage play on 4/1 or 3/2!

•

u/Disastrous_Wind_7005 2h ago

Tell us you know nothing about actually football philosophy without really telling us you know nothing about football! If you really think this loss is on Muschamp you know NOTHING about the game and how you HAVE to have some offensive production to help your defense! This loss is 100000% on the offense and their inability to actually produce anything!

You do realize we didn't gain a first down from 6:00 in the second until THE 4TH Fucking QUARTER!!!!!! We had two drives in the third quarter and BOTH went 3 and OUT! This loss and OU is SOLEY on SARK, and ARCH not being able to score more points than the school of the fucking blind!!!!

u/Aemdl 6h ago

Just saw this as well. Multiple EMS and it looks like the restaurant was emptied and everyone outside seemed a little concerned when I drove by.

u/maggies_farm_hand 6h ago

I was concerned that they were running out of Bob Armstrong dip.

Because that’s what it was before the dipshits started using Reddit.

Nope... You confused reddit for next door.

u/1994toyotacamry_ 3h ago

You mean the Reddit that contained hundreds of subreddits that are now banned? Where people would comment something about a narwhal or the undertaker? Yeah okay

•

u/Ok-Midnight9311 1h ago

Banned subreddits are irrelevant to this conversation. But good try I guess 🤷

u/1994toyotacamry_ 5h ago

Not as fucking annoying as trying to get into other peoples business. If you are so adamant that you need to know then drive up to Matt’s el rancho and interview the police or people there.
