So me and some of the guys I work with got together, and we're going to get some handpads and start fighting eachother. The way it's going to work is this, the two fighters pay <x> each and the winner takes all, anyone watching can bet, but if they win they get back what they bet +80%, the other 20% goes to the winner. One of the managers overheard a bunch of us talking about it and told us it was illegal. My question is, is it really illegal if we all consent to it because I was kind of looking forward to the endurance I'll get out of it, along with the money.
I guess your not too much of a business man, 20% thats only 20 bucks out of every $100....and If you lose well, that sucks gettin ya azz beat and no money....Id charge ATLEAST $5 to watch at the minumal,(you gotta pay to play, cause some chumps will come and not even bet) and change the betting to where they win 75%(Trust me that 5% differnce want influence how much they bet, cause when ppl bet they most likely think they are gonna win any way) .....Id pay good money to see these fights...sit back with a few cold beers, it dont get much better than that.........

Whatever happens, make sure you continue to break the first rule of Fight Club because this is interesting.
haha.
Seriously though I was raised by over sensitive "we've been sued" parents. granted they were indeed sued I was made very aware to be careful of what I did if for no other reason to avoid lawsuits.
A fight club is a very cool idea. It is illegal but I sped all the way home. The only thing I'd worry about is someone getting really hurt and you getting screwed by a personal injury attorney.
I'm not too worried about being sued. We're trying to establish some rules, no bashing their head into the ground and things like that. There's going to be someone reffing incase it gets out of control.

Right I figured you would but you cant control freak accidents. like someone throws a hard uppercut and the other guy's nose gets jammed into his brain. or some other stuff you never saw coming.
Even though that scenario is almost impossible because the bone you have to hit that goes up into your brain only protudes about 1/8 of an inch off your body, so it needs to be a pretty direct and concentrated hit. However I will give you the points for that reply. Touche.

Which is why I gave you a "Touche."
