Swinging for the fences * 1
    #23886216 - 12/01/16 11:14 PM (7 years, 2 months ago)

Watching UFC fight pass while drinking heavily.

Any old heads able to tell me if the phrase, "SWINGING FOR THE FENCES!" Was a phrase before the UFC was around? The octagon showed up in like '93 but I was a child then. I can't remember a time without that phrase though.

I guess there was an octagon movie with chick Norrolis back in the 80s but I doubt that's was where the term came from, I head it was a shitty movie.

I thought it was a baseball term. Swinging for the fences meant that you were trying to hit a home run.

Is UFC fight pass worth it? I'm thinking about getting it.

If the baseball made it over the fence, it's a homerun.

You need jesus. :lol:
