I agree with your tagline about the Steelers since I live in Steelers country.
If I must die, you are a worthy adversity.

So, we are in a Temple of Doom situation. Interesting.

I see it going down like this. I shake the bridge, the oven mitts hinder my opponent causing him to drop the gun, I paralyze him with the cattle prod and I deliver a quick death with the shiv, then I scalp the body before flinging the body upon the rocks for the wild animals to feast upon.

The other wild card is that Carr4MVP is probably really good with a homemade shiv, being a Raiders fan and all.

I had to Google shiv.

Pennsylvania Raiders fans aren't familiar with what weapons our Oakland fans carry.

We are not all stereotypes.

I am more proficient in medieval weapons.

16 feet and mittens tied to hands is a pretty critical factor on this one. The CP Gladiator gods are throwing some crazy knuckle balls with special factors.

Thank you. You are a kind person and I apologize in advance for your impending death.

Just because we are enemies, it doesn't mean we have to fight without honor.

I don’t know if he can pull the trigger and still hit the target.

Actually that would be pretty easy.

Ok, so I have a 45/70 already packed up and ready, which is one of the guns I'm taking to the mountains in a couple of days. It is the same layout as the 30-30. I'm about half tempted to unpack the damn thing, toss on a set of oven gloves and solve this mystery.

I would be very interested. Any chance that you'll cross a rope bridge in the mountains?

I highly doubt it in the area I'm going.

On a side note, jacking in another round would be a piece of cake, it was a bit of a bitch getting my finger on the trigger but I did it. Bottom line, at 16 feet TLO should be able to get off one shot, if he connects, he wins, if he misses, he gets brained with the chair leg. If the distance was further out, I would just reach down and rip a hole in the right hand glove with my teeth.

On a side note, I won't be wearing oven gloves on the trip, so advantage Bwana if I run into a pissed of grizzly.

We really should put this into the "Science Is Cool" thread. It may be the first Chiefsplanet authored scientific experiment.

They both fall off the rope bridge.
