One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

back in the day, i saw this one guy do a stage-dive right onto his funny face. we were at a Sublime show and the rockin´was pretty fierce at the time. this one big dude was being a jerk in the mosh pit and decided that he wanted to be a jerk up on stage. he clambers up on stage, takes a running start, and leaps with arms flapping into the deep sea of people. me and my buddy Zach were in harms way and decided to do a side step and avoid any permanent injury. the guy smacks down face first into the hardwood floor and takes a few moments before rising up. he looks around in disgust at his fellow rockers and flees out the back door, never to return to a Sublime show again.

The End.....?
