There’s nothing like being in Kentucky the week leading up to Louisville-Kentucky’s Final Four showdown.
Here’s an example of just how far people are taking this rivalry…
AÂ fist fight broke out between dialysis patients in Georgetown, Ky., on Monday. One patient had the nerve to say he thought Louisville would win. And that just wasn’t OK.
More from WKYT-TV:
“He just happened to think UofL would beat UK and he started to run his mouth,” explained dialysis patient Ed Wilson. Wilson also happens to be a self-proclaimed die hard UK fan. “That’s what started it.”
But Charles Taylor, who was waiting to get hooked up to a machine saw things differently. “I didn’t talk to him about the ball game; I was talking to another guy about the game,” The UofL fan exclaimed. “He was meddling. And told me to shut up and gave me the finger!”
Taylor refused to tolerate that. He went over to Wilson, who was sitting and hooked up to a machine — and he didn’t hold back.
“I went up to him and I hit him, ” Taylor said. “Didn’t hit him that hard, but I hit him.”
Mercifully, the fight was over by the time police arrived at the Georgetown Dialysis Center.
The best part of the WKYT-TV dispatch? The last line of the story:
Wilson says he’s not filing charges against Taylor, but he does hope the Cats win.
