    Fencing Bag Stickers

    In the time that I've been fencing, I've noticed many people have stickers or signs on their fencing bags saying a myriad of things.... my question is WHAT DO YOURS SAY?!

    My bag has a sign in it's little transparant pouch that says "My right of way rule: I'm right, so get out of my way!" I found it in a shop on a trip one time, and I think it had to do with driving, but I couldn't pass it up. <img src="graemlins/blah.gif" border="0" alt="[Blah]" />

    Frankenbag has a number of things taped to it. All but one are bouts that I either saw (live or on tape) or was involved in that teach me never to give up. The prime inspirational bout was Kim vs Golunitsky at the '97 World's, men''s foil finals. Practical upshot - Kim was down 11-3 in the final period, but ripped off 8 in a row to tie it up, and damn near stole the title from Golubitsky.

    Another bout is one of mine, where I was down 14-9 against a much better, taller and faster foil opponent. I managed to come back and tie it, missing the win by about 1/4 of an inch (my attack passe, his counter good).

    The only non-fencing note on the bag is a quote from the character Gohan from the cartoon Dragonball Z "It's all or nothing...there is NO inbetween!"

    Going to your first tournament? Read "Choose yer weapon, Laddie (or: Dude, where's my foil?)"

    A small tag, with the question.

    I just this minute recieved a purchase from E-Bay for some stickers that are made up to look like a traditional, industrial "WARNING" sign (white and red with black letters).

    WARNING! Protected by A Guy With A Sword

    It will be on my bag in seconds! I'll probably give the rest of them away to my buds at the salle tonight. I over paid for them , 99 cents US/each but I couldn't resist.

    I've got a Peanuts sticker, a Tori Amos sticker, and an Evil Dead sticker (Ash with his chainsaw). Another mirror of my twisted soul.

    my personal favorite is a sticker that says:

    Stupity should be painful

    And the best part about it is its so true.
