God I love stories like this.

You know there's a reason that they lived that long. They outlasted everyone else in their generation. Sure they've lost a step, but some of those old farkers survived WWII.

There is something about them that just makes me smile, yeah.

We warned you....

see what happens when you find a stranger in the alps ??

Not so sure about the, "Bowlers rule" bit, but I'd probably take it up just for Pound-A-Punk day.

I really do enjoy it when I read stories like this. And you're right...those older folks ARE tough. One year they're machine-gunning nazis, 60 years later and they're dropping 10 lb. bowling balls on some little punks nuts.
Those bowlers will have something to talk about for a while.

Where's the HERO tag?
Would've loved to be watching that scene unfold.

Best possible outcome:

The kid ends up in Juvey and has to explain in court how he got caught. When the Judge finally stops laughing, he sentences the little dirtball to 500 hours community service at the city's Senior Center picking trash, painting everything in sight and waiting on Seniors on their activity days. Each day, he must explain in detail what he did and why that makes him a douchebag.

The punk was "dog piled" !

Smiling wide, I do like those stories.

Castrate him before he can reproduce and make him work in a nursing home for the rest of his useless life.
Also, his parents need to be publicly flogged for 40 days for raising such a useless shiate.

hey punk, can you spell FAIL?

Seniors Rule!

/wrote that in my yearbook.

FTA: Johnson said the youth told police he steeled his nerves for the caper by drinking a beer and some Robitussin cough medicine a few minutes beforehand.

Where's a pharmacist when you need one?

This would be awesome if they handed that down as his punishment.

Approves of the beating of young whippersnappers:

as others have said those guys survived the nazi's, they ain't worried about you.

Pro Tip: never mess with anyone the government has taught how to kill people and then sent them off for several years of experience. They have the skill and at there age, life is a 2 year prison sentence.

It was old age having a go at youth, and I daren't do a single, solitary thing...

Old people are great.

'Bowlers rule. Never fool with a bowler.'

While I may not agree with that sentiment specifically, I hope I'm half as convinced of my own relevance and awesomeness when I'm retired.

1. As has been said, they are from a tougher generation, overall.

2. People who bowl are (and I am, too) blue-collar types. These people likely aren't from a country club background, so an ass-whuppin' was inevitable.

Teen robber gets can of whupass opened on him by senior citizens bowling league


Apparently the seniors did indeed have eight-pound balls.



(So sorry.)

Too bad it wasn't a Senior Citizen's Second Amendment League.

DId they strike him repeatedly until he fell into the gutter?

Somebody post that scene from The Wanderers.

Don't mess with old people.
They're easily angered.

Came here for Buzz Aldrin, leaving disappointed.

Would have accepted Granddad from Boondocks or the Grey Biker Gang from Seinfeld. Eat hickory!

"Never fool with a bowler."

I'm fairly certain that the original word here was not "fool."

"In my day, whupass didn't come in cans. They were delivered to your house in quart bottles. And they only cost a nickel for two!"

OVER THE LINE!!!!
