I had pretty good results using my can on some punk, too. Its been
over three years since I took him down after he assaulted me, and people
still laugh when his name is mentioned. They still call him 'Pretzel

twisted behind his back, and I was leaning down to cut off his air. It
was a fair fight though. He was one third my age, six inches taller, and
thought he was the meanest SOB in North Central Florida. He just didn't
count on an old man taking him down, in front of his little group of
thugs.
