Other uses of a Fencing Mask?! Found this little news article:
What I found interesting is that the robber did not have a weapon, just the mask and gloves.
My quip about this would be "Is fencing that scary?"
What's yours?

6 ft, 180 pounds... sounds like a pretty fit fencer :/ In Flanders fields the poppies grow - Between the crosses, row on row, - That mark our place, and in the sky, - The larks, still bravely singing, fly, - Scarce heard amid the guns below. ~John McCrae

What's yours? Maybe he needed the money from the heist to buy an epee?

I once used my mask to dig my car out of a snow drift.

"The man, who was not carrying a foil, or any other weapon, demanded cash from a clerk at Circle K store at 4360 Genesee Ave. around 11:10 p.m."
Damn, why do they always assume it is a foilist? Well, this is just another argument for visor masks. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WON'T YOU BUY MY TACTICAL WHEEL!!!????

A man wearing a fencing mask and white gloves robbed a convenience store in western Clairemont Mesa, but no one was hurt, police said Tuesday.
OK, so no visor mask, wearing all white gloves, and didn't hurt anyone. Couldn't have be a saberist.

 I caught this morning morning’s minion, king-
dom of daylight’s dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon, in his riding
Of the rolling level underneath him steady air, and striding
High there, how he rung upon the rein of a wimpling wing
In his ecstasy! then off, off forth on swing,
As a skate’s heel sweeps smooth on a bow-bend: the hurl and gliding
Rebuffed the big wind. My heart in hiding
Stirred for a bird,—the achieve of; the mastery of the thing!

I have seen a fencing mask used to strain out the chunky parts of vomit.
I have used it when i had to face off a piece of aluminum on a mill and i didn't have safety glasses. Everyone relax cause I got it....

I was traveling home from a NAC with a bunch from the club and one of the TSA inspectors asked one of the kids, "Is that a spaghetti strainer in your bag?"
Only if we get hungry. The spirit is willing, but the fleche is weak.

Maybe they swallowed a penny, and didn't want to wait for it. Often in error. Never in doubt.

Did the vomit come from the wearer's mouth, unexpectedly and before they had the time to remove it? I've heard those stories.
