Killed a man with my bare hands once....

Well work was kind of slow today. I delt with three people all day long and they sucked. The better part was during my lunch break. A few of us were in the back room telling stories of almost dying and accidents. I think I won that part w/ my story (tell ya later) . This lead to a one up story telling time . Accidents - a person had a stranger die in his arms after an accident. So I decided tp up the ante a bit. I looked the square in the eyes and said " I killed a man with my bare hands once." . You could have heard a pin fall in that room. - The story starts -- I was meeting a friend in Iowa at his college for a weekend. She invited me to stay with her during home comming. There was lots of drinking and dancing. Some how I got seperated from her in the town , I was drunk and lost. I must have wandered in to a seedy part of town. I strolled in to a bar to ask for directions and the bar keep gave me them. So I started to walk off. First I walked in to an alley to piss the beers away. I was jumped by two men wanting my money. The first came at me so I hit him in the face with a beer bottle. He went down fast blood every where . The second pulled a knife and came at me. I didnt feel the knife cut across my belly. I grabbed him with one hand , knocked the knife away with the other. We dropped to the ground . I stated to hit him. Maybe it was the adrenaline maybe it was fear or the booze , but I could not stop hitting him. I crushed his face and throat with repeted blows. My eyes were full of tears as I beat this man to death. I got up and ran. I found my way to her dorm and she patched me up. The cut was not too bad, but I broke my hand. That would have to wait till I drove home in the morning. -- They were all in awe and horrified that I killed a man and left. Then I had to smile and say got ya. Man did they give me shit about that. - It was a good yarn tha I spun. -- I think when I showed them a scar that I do have across my belly that sinched the story. -- goodnight.
