What Would You Do? - Novices

How to start a fight...

I rear-ended a car this morning...the start of a REALLY bad day!

The driver got out of the other car, and he was a DWARF!!

He looked up at me and said 'I am NOT Happy!'

So I said, 'Well, which one ARE you then?'

I don't mess with the "little people" anymore!!


Scenario 3: What appears to be a family outing with parents and kids is actually a group of circus performers. If we look close we'll see The Bearded Lady, The Worlds Skinniest Man, Tonto and Frankenstein, and twelve midgets.
Our suspicions are further confirmed when we see one of the children do a shot of Jagermeister.
Civic duty requires me to notify the local authorities and have the adults charged with contributing to the delinquency of a midget.
 
If anything, I would have introduced myself, and asked if they'd like to see a trick shot...then have one of the kids shoot it in, making 5 balls in one shot! Everyone would cheer!

Yes, Fred, it's true that a tenet of SPF methodology is based on growing the sport. As such, all SPF instructors are encouraged to casually spread knowledge when in public, and appropriate. It's also one of the reasons why randyg and I do five days of free lessons every summer at the BCAPL Nationals in Vegas (this will be our 11th straight year!). All of our instructors donate time to many worthy causes, not the least of which is what you were talking about! :grin:

In case anyone was really wondering,

3. I didn't say anything to the Big Brother outing, but I wouldn't mind giving lessons to a bunch of kids would wanted to learn at least the basics. i think I seemed to pick up this idea from Scott Lee, who always wants to pass on knowledge to novices in a "let's get everyone into the game" sort of way.
 
3. What looks like a Big brother outing, several adults have about 12 young boys shooting. None can hold a stick. They're having fun.

Do you say anything?

If the adults are catholic priests, I keep an eye on them, but don't say anything....:p
 
For me no on the first two unless asked and on the third only if they were ruining the equiptment or if I were playing next to them I would move as far away as possible.. Happens all the time..:smile:
