FULMER CUP: HEADBUTT WAY INTO PARTY EDITION
The headbutt is the way to eternal fight glory, the most underrated of fight moves: practically uncounterable, savage, and done with a healthy disregard for the thinking gland and its fine, rock-hard casing. Think of its savage effectiveness in the Road Warrior series, its succinct work in Road House, or its ubiquity in the Orc playbook through the Lord of the Rings movies.
It will not get you into a house party, though, if the person at the door does not want you to, something learned by head-butting, braincase-jarring Washington State defensive tackle Alan Roof the (skull) hard way on Saturday in Pullman.
Police say Roof, 22, allegedly head-butted a man who was keeping him out of a private party Saturday on Pullman’s College Hill.
It looked nothing like any of the scenes below.
That’s one point for Washington State for fourth-degree misdemeanor assault in the Fulmer Cup. The guy who headbutted the hell out of Indiana Jones in the runway fight scene laughs at his puny efforts.

True story: I once told Terrell Suggs, another gentleman, and three young ladies that they couldn’t come into my fraternity’s party because it was too full inside. Suggs, being the gentle beast that he is, said “Aw man, you serious? Okay, that’s cool” The five of them then started to walk away.
At that point, I realized who it was, called them back, and invited them to share in our abundance of hot ASU coeds and cold drinks. Suggs had a ginormous smile on his face and called me “his boy” before entering. I miss college.

That was magical. Mind you, this is coming from someone whose daughters are both instinctive headbuttters, so I may be be biased.

one time in college a dude got thrown out of a party at my apartment for trying to fight everyone. obviously hopped up on some crazy drugs, he ran through my front door, headbutted one of my best friends in the nose, the fight spilled into the parking lot, and they left. my buddy had to report to basic training with a shiner from a headbutt.
all of this while i was at home for christmas break.

Actually it seems Alan Roof not only head butted the bouncer at the party, but he hit one guy in the face hard enough to knock him out and break some bones. He also slammed another guys head into the sharp side of a stop sign. This one is worth way more than one point.

I bet it looked something like Terry Tate flying in there at the end of that reel.

The funniness in that video did make me laugh a pretty good bit, so thanks for bringing that to my attention. Many favorite parts. Lots of creativity. The icing on that cake? When Neo of the Matrix is dodging Zidane. As the point of view spins around, who’s that in the background? Not the agent, the gosh damn Burger King. Where is your god now?
