UFC 100 and my day

Well I decided to skip UFC 100 and catch the replay on the internet. Go watch the fights before you even read any further as im going to give my thoughts and they will contain spoilers.

So i skipped the fights because a few friends invited me too go to the Calgary stampede. Which is basically a rodeo with rides on the side for all those that don't know. I went there to see Bif Naked. My thoughts. It was really crowded. Really crowded. I was cold at first because I only wore a t-shirt but there was so many people around me I got warmed up and it felt like I was wearing a hoody. We got there 20 mins before she came out and yet we were about halfway from the stage. But some reason me and my friend Ryan advanced each 5 mins and got closer and closer as the clock ticked down.

One thing I was not impressed by was the amount of mary jane that was going around the stampede. Its a family event. I don't care if you smoke it outside of a bar but a public place where pregnet women and kids are is not the right place. The cops did thier best to control that but the amount of people was just to overwhelming.

Finally when Bif got on stage. we were about 1/4 to the stage but that tallest of tall people were in the very front. Lammmeee... We just stood there and could periodically only see her head. It was pretty lame. Then for some reason people started moshing. It was quite annoyying. As a wet... yes wet from sweat, Native american guy kept pushing me into my friend. Where did this mosh start? who the hell said I was going to mosh. Friggin idiot. I was tottally grossed out as everyone was wet. People even began to surf the crowd. The biggest perverts were in the crowd all the girls got groped as they went up.

Seriously I found it very offensive because once again its a family event.... I even saw a boob. Once again if it was at a concert. A real concert I would not complain but a family event and a boob pops out. Classy... Basically the whole time a wet guy was pushing me into my friend and I was like man I should have sat in the back these guys are friggin wet and annoying. I even fell down once as seriously someone goldberg tackled me.

Not to good. The rest of the stampede we just walked around. As none of my friends wanted togo on the rides, because their poor or afriad im not too sure which one it is.

I got home at around 12ish and then started finding the UFC 100 replay.

Im going to talk about the whole card in genereal. It sucked. For UFC 100 I was expecting to have my socks blown off. UFC 98 was way better.

So heres my break down. I started watching the Hendo vs Bisping fight first. It was a closer fight then I expected and I seriously thought it was going togo decision but My guy Hendo KOed Bisping it was a good start for me as it got me pumped up.

the 2nd fight I saw was the GSP vs Thiago fight. This for me put me to sleep. I seriously was watching from my bed and I closed my eyes in between rounds and found myself awakinging and seeing the same stuff. GSP taking Thiago down and working ground and pound. It wasn't lay and pray, but lets face it. it was boring to watch as Thiago did not have any answer for it. It would have been better if GSP could finish Thiago. But Thiago was way to strong, so he would power out and get back to his feet and GSp would take him down again. I don't care what you say. This was a boring fight. Anderson silva vs thales leites wasn't even this bad, because Silva was toying with Leites with messed up kicks.

the 3rd fight was the main event with lesnar and mir. By the time GSP fight wrapped out I was out cold due to boredom and the long ass intro to the fight didn't help either. I found myself missing the whole first round and only watching the 2nd round mid point to finish. I just saw Lesnar pin down Mir and finish him. It was lame.

the last fight was cut out but it was paulo thiago vs jon fitch and it had a amazing first round but the stream got cut out so I defineatly want to see that fight again.

All in and all it might have been my fatigue level but I really didn't get into tonights fights. it was boring. But I'm so happy Hendo shut Bispings cocky mouth. So glad.

Yep I was at a concert at Capital Ex, in Edmonton. It was Tragically Hip, The Trews and Sam Roberts. Didnt see anyone smoking till Sam Roberts came out, then it seemed like everyone was. I was like 11 at the time, too. So yeh it kinda shows that little kids are at these concerts :D
