prince = worth getting your ass kicked?

so I joined this site last saturday...when I got home from the hospital...after I got my ass kicked by two guys at a local bar because I was wearing a "stupid f**king fag shirt"....the shirt in question was none other than my prized prince t-shirt...I was simply in the wrong place in the wrong time I suppose...but for some reason this whole incident only made me a more of a fan....sure I told the guys to f**k off when they were harassing me about the shirt...but really, these guys were wearing (i kid you not) def leppard and nickelback t-shirt. This isn't the first time I have encountered hostility because I am wearing a prince t-shirt....has anyone else experienced this physical hostility? and has anyone else suffered physical injury because of being a prince fan?

i haven't. how did you wear it? i lookeded so kayute with my purple rain outfit. i walked right up in a bar with it on and nobody cared. People need to stop sleeping on Prance.

someone in a NICKELBACK t-shirt called your prince t-shirt gay??? hoo-boy.

i used to get a lot of shit for liking prince in high school, but when i considered the musical abortions they listened to, i considered their jeers a mark of good taste on my part.

from college on, though, when people found out i dug prince, i'd always get the standard "he's weird but he's a genius" reply.

I should wear my prince shirt in public more often.

i typically dont get along with men much or go to bars where assholes get drunk and act more like assholes than when they are just sober male assholes ...so...im sorry this happened and u have reminded me to try my best to avoid places where assholes go....its hard cause they seem to be everywhere...

I'm sorry to hear you got your ass kicked by those jokers. Sometimes it's just easier to not be so open about your love for Prince.

To tell the truth, the only physical fights I have ever had in my entire life have been with my siblings.

I have been confronted by people but I have bluffed them into thinking I was crazy (not a far stretch from the truth). I just tell them, very calmly, "You can call me whatever the hell you want. You know, it really doesn't matter to me, since it's coming from trash...but when you put your hands on me, you may beat my ass up in here, but if I ever make it to my car and back up in here, you'll never be able to put your hands on anybody else again. I'll cut your dick off and wear it on my earring. And while I'm in prison, afterwards, I'll be having more sex than I've ever had in my life and laughing at you down in hell."

I usually stay away from places where I know there is going to be trash but in my younger days, you couldn't tell me anything...I wanted to go everywhere.

I'm sorry for what happened to you... no, I never got into trouble for wearing a Prince t-shirt... I was mocked at high school sometimes but I didn't really care...

i was a boxer from 12-28 and a sucker punch artist in my teens LOL. so, though i was only 5 '4 and used to rock eyeliner with lace gloves in high school nobody would fuck with me. I once punched a guy and made him apologize to me in front of his girlfriend for calling prince a fag.

That's some punk ass shit, sorry it happened to you dude

nbk, I'm sorry to hear about what's happened - terrible! I hope you're ok. I'd never condone violence but - since they laid into you first - I hope they get what they deserve. Especially over something so silly.

I hope this doesn't affect your love of P's music.

Respect 2 U

'prince = worth getting your ass kicked?' - I'd say yes.

"Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies -
tongue-tied and twisted, just an earthbound misfit, I"

dude...you were in a bar, chances are those cats were pretty inebriated (not to mention probably a bit dense upstairs as well) when they were messin with you. and to answer your question, i've never been harassed by anyone while wearin one of my p t-shirts. i've heard nothin but stuff like, "where'd you get that shirt from?"

No.

But I woulda had your back.

Once I had a gay comment made at me for wearing a symbol pendant around my neck.


Looking back ('95), I can't believe I dressed like that, to work or otherwise, what a spanner! But still, it's funny how some folks view Prince...and his fans.

..... BULLSEYE!

Kind of hard to defend a goofy brother like Prince, just remember, the most homophobic men are the most latently homosexual.

okay....i don't know what's more ridiculous: the fact that this poor soul got beat down for who was on a mere t-shirt, or the fact that the grown-assed bastids that did it are still into the idea of "my band is better than yours". no pop star is worth gettin your ass beat over. that shit's trivial.

Some guys seem to just be looking for a fight.

Dontcha just love men?

I'm so sorry 2 hear about this and hope u r alright. I
can't believe even now they are still doing this.

The only time I had a problem was when my son was a little boy
we went to Great Adventure and he wanted a poster of Prince
when he asked the man started yelling that Prince was a fag
and then called my son a fag.

Well since I was Mom/Dad (single mom) the dad came out
they gave my son a poster (not Prince) we ripped it up
and threw at the guy.
