Ever had any. I bring this up because I got into one today.
Me, my younger brother Tom, and some of his friends are sitting on a bench waiting for our ride. We see this one kid that Tom doesn't like. We kinda like make jokes, not that loudly, that I guess he, his friend, and a group of like six dumb ugly skanks overhear, and just as he walks out the door he says, "At least my I'm not retarded (Tom) and have a brother who's a smurfin' fatass (me)."
So we kinda get up, and talk to them, telling them we damn well heard what he said and we didn't like it. So I figured we'd just go back and wait and everything would be fine. I figured wrong. When their mom pulled up in her van, I guess they told her something because this hag gets out of her car with them, and walks toward the office to "file a report". Words are exchanged, the aforementioned skanks are running their mouths without even being involved, so I say, "Why don't you just shut your mouth you smurfing c***?" (By the way, this whole time the mom is being a complete idiot, actually trying to get her kid to fight)
The friend then gets up in my face to talk crap, and Tom runs up and punches him in the mouth, causing them to fight until the friend sucker punches Tom, sending him to the ground. Then they stood over him, looking almost like they were going to kick him while he was down. This infuriates me, so I punch the kid in the head a few times and his friend tries to get a shot in on me, but I rock him with a punch as well. It was broken up by a few bystanders.
So we go to the office, we give our side to one assistant principal, theirs to another. Apparently, theirs was completely conflicting. (Which I had assumed due to their ridiculousness. The mom actually tried to claim that I had gone after her, when I never so much as took a false step in her direction!)So me, Tom, and the two a-holes all got five day suspensions. Sure, maybe it was wrong or whatever, but I'll be damned if I stand there and watch my own flesh and blood get fought two-on-one.
Kudos if you read all that, perhaps share similar stories.

I got about 2.5 sentences into it before giving up.
Now that I think about it, I wish I got into a lot more fights when I was 12 or whatever age you are. It would have boosted my self-worth I think.
My advice: Learn a martial art like BJJ, Muay Thai, Sambo or just plain old Boxing. You will gain confidence, self worth and when such a situation appears you will know exactly what to do.
Free tip: Everybody underestimates the kick to the groin. This is streetfighting. Groin attack sets up a fatality.
Stay away from TaeKwon Do, Kung-fu and other Ninjitsu type martial arts.

Oh man. I can see this going well. Hopefully we don't have a bunch of people espousing violence like we did in Tank's thread a few days ago. Think what you want, but I did what I felt I had to do. I respect you opinion though..

Absolutely. If you're put in a position where violence is a certainty, well, crap happens and you have to deal with it. I'd just really caution you from going looking for trouble. Strangely enough, there are rather serious consequences for initiating violence.
I don't, however, understand where words beget violence. I never have, I never will. Seems a rather backward way of thinking "Hey, man, they gotta RESPECT me!"
There are a lot of people in the world. Some of them are pricks, it turns out. Do everyone a favor and try not to be one of them.

Sounds like you and your brother got caught talking crap then your brother sucker punched the kid who was in your face. Decent story though.
Best fight story I have from high school is this: This kid named Brian used his savings to buy a remote control monster truck when everyone else was buying Mopeds and we all made fun of him at lunch (group of like 20 of us who all hung together). Well I'm pretty good at ragging on people so he got pretty pissed. Someone talked him into fighting me in gym class. So we change, I go over to look at the schedule for the day and BAM! BAM! get nailed in the face twice before I can turn around...once I did we just went at it for a good five minutes punch for punch. Pretty brutal. No one broke it up. Not even the gym teachers. This was back when you could get away with this in school...
He ended up with X amount of stitches in his head, a broken hand and a broken nose. I was fine. Got suspended and missed prom though.

We're in a rather small school here. If a fight does happen on school grounds it gets around. My cousin Maxie got into it with another girl and slammed her face into a locker and the whole nine. Nobody shuts up about it after it happens.
I know it's not a fight, but my bro once pulled a knife on his school bus (just showing it off) and carved into the seat just to show off. One of the kids nearby who hated my brother then went home and told his mom he had brought the knife on and slashed him with it (he even picked the scab off a cut he had and claimed it was from the knife.
The next day coming home his mom was waiting as he got off the bus and spent a good 20 minutes ratting out the busdriver for not having a handle on things and looking for my brother.

Interesting. All my "avoid violence when possible talk aside," occaisionally I get into a scuff or something (came with the territory working as a bouncer).
High school, three days from graduations, at rehearsal, and somehow a buddy of mine get into it. Over him moving his hat. Yeah.
Well, it turns out he was a boxer, and dropped me pretty quickly. So I went to graduation in cap and gown with a cut lip and swollen face.
The principal, thankfully, was very cool about it because by the time he even got wind, we were back to being friends (though I was washing blood off my face). My mom however, was pissed.
Let's get something figured out here...I went to school in a town of 1500 people in rural Wyoming. Our student body was 145. There were 35 in my graduating class. My mom worked in the school district, literally in a building 100 or yards from the very auditorium where we were rehearsing.
She was unimpressed to say the least, but all she did was chew me out for a few minutes until she realized I didn't really care and wasn't listening, and then she let it go.
Strangely enough, that one has been the worst. Everything else has been pretty tame by comparison, mainly because I feel confident enough in myself to not feel I have anything to prove and know when to get the hell out of a bad situation before I get REALLY messed up.

I got into a fight in 6th grade with this guy and I put him in a headlock and rammed his head into the lockers. I got props from the older kids for this, it made my year.
Also notice, that you, in my case, end up good friends with the kids you fight later on in high school or after.

Sounds like you and your brother got caught talking crap then your brother sucker punched the kid who was in your face. Not really talked shit, just a quick "Did you hear that so-and-so..." off-hand comment. Not like were were yelling insults at him across the room. And the kid who was in my face actually I think shoved my brother out of the way to get to me, which set him off. It's hard to recall details, because there's just craziness going on around you and you can't really soak it all in.

I went to a pretty bad school in Tulsa last year and my buddy got stabbed in the bathroom and i beat the crap out of the guy that did it. That's about it. Boy, Collegiate Wrestling and MMA have helped me out in good ways

Sounds like everyone involved were being idiots. How dare someone say something negative to you after you just gone done doing the same thing to them. The injustice of it all! If people would stop being hypocrites there would be world peace.

I have been in situations where the odd fist or forehead is flying about, but never what I would consider to be a fight.

The only incident I can really remember was when a guy from our year pulled out a knife on another student. He was immediately expelled afterwards.
Apart from that I can't recall any actual fights.

True story - I once hit a textbook snap suplex to end a fight.
